Ceto Circlet is a series of new lights by Melbourne designer Ross Gardam made from blown glass and aluminium. The light is somewhere between a pendant and a chandelier with 9, 12 or 15 individual lights in glass attached to a horizontal metal ring.
Gardam says the mouth-blown nature of the glass means that Ceto Circlet: “captures the variation and rippling of the surface of the ocean… evoking the presence of the sea and its undulating movements.”
The light is a result of a series of experimentations with traditional optics glass blowing techniques. Each glass shade is blown in Australia and assembled with a machined aluminium body and circular band in Melbourne.
Ceto Circlet was one of a collection of luminaire designs by Ross Gardam to be shown as part of the exhibition Transcendence at this year’s Milan Design Week.
