Volcanoes are the best representative of the fire element on Earth. And what other material would better reflect this element than glass, which is born of fire as well?

The glass is blown into the form of a special texture which resembles the surface of the landscape around volcanoes where lava cools down and hardens. The lighting plays counterpoint to Velčovský´s previous lighting collection – Frozen. While Frozen was inspired by ice and its myriad sculptures, the Volcano is inspired by the many shapes of fire.
