Entry DescriptionJust as eternity is immeasurable, the individual segments of Eternity luminaires are uncountable. But together they form an inseparable whole – a force that breathes life and is constantly in motion.
From a seed, a tree sprouts, whose fruits give birth to seeds again. An endless cycle of life descending to us on Earth to remain here forever.
The installation is made up of unique components composed of two contrasting elements:textured brass casting, which is created by hand- casting in sand, and hand-formed crystal glass (clear or sparkling).
Sustainability Approach1. Material Sourcing:
- We use recycled glass and brass whenever possible, reducing the need for new raw materials and minimizing environmental impact.
2. Energy Efficiency in Manufacturing:
- We optimize our manufacturing processes to minimize energy consumption.
- We have implemented a closed-loop system to recycle waste materials back into production, thereby minimizing landfill waste.
3. Product Design:
- Our chandeliers are designed for durability, reducing the need for frequent replacements and lowering the overall environmental footprint.
- The design is modular, allowing for easy disassembly, repair, or replacement of parts, which extends the product's lifespan.
4. Packaging:
- We use recyclable or biodegradable materials for packaging, such as recycled cardboard.
- Our packaging is designed to be compact, using the least amount of material
