The Belgian master glassmakers encased a dark amethyst core within a thick layer of clear crystal.

In hand, the surprise is total: the object weighs only 600 grams! This is where the genius of Peter Muller-Munk’s design lies. The center is so deeply flared and concave that it literally empties the piece of its heaviness, transforming a solid crystal object into an aerodynamic, airy, and vibrant wing. \u003cbr\u003eWe love its space-age silhouette and its hypnotic amethyst hue that catches light like no other piece.

Far from being defects, these original imperfections tell the story of period manufacturing and bring a vibrant, poetic texture to the object. Initially imagined to enhance the scenography of the most avant-garde European fashion salons and shop windows, these solid glass pieces have acquired the status of Pop culture icons over the decades.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContemporary Utilitarian Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBeyond its value as a collector's item, this piece fits perfectly into current lifestyle trends by combining aesthetics and functionality.

Unlike the transparent versions more common on the market, this amber shade captures natural light with rare intensity, transforming the object throughout the day. \u003cbr\u003eWe particularly love its versatility: an aesthetic manifesto of the 1970s that integrates with disconcerting ease into a loft or a contemporary interior.
