CHAIN FRUIT BOWL
by BETHAN LAURA WOOD
Chain collection is constructed from multiple cast-glass “donut bricks” cut and threaded through one another to form a unified, chain-like sculpture. Inspired by traditional Japanese and Korean temple joinery, the polished curved ends reference architectural connections observed during the designer’s travels through Asia. This creative reuse of existing moulds for glass casting, combined with meticulous cutting and threading, reflects a cosmopolitan fusion of craftsmanship and geometry.
