IVO
candelabra, 2022 // stone-ware + LED
dimensions: 110 x 55 x 410 (without light bulbs)
IVO is an ambient lamp made of glazed stone-ware. Functionally it is an electric version of a candelabra however coming in an extremely reduced and contemporary shape. This shape certainly evokes associations of an ancient bridge and its arcs, like the “The Bridge on the Drina” in Ivo Andric’s famous novel.
The stone-ware body comes in different colors of matte glazes, and can be combined with a wide choice of globe-shaped light-bulbs.
As the shape is very unusual for ceramic objects, posing a number of material challenges, the design process involved elaborate trials to find a reliable method.
