<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong><br />
by Jitka Kamencová Skuhravá
<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />
<strong>Space</strong><br />
champagne among light<strong>in</strong>g fi xtures<br />
Do you fancy bubbles? They tickle on your tongue, sparkle down<br />
your throat and make you smile. The bubbles are full of optimism<br />
and emotions and Champagne w<strong>in</strong>e have had and will always reta<strong>in</strong><br />
the prestige of luxury item, likewise the <strong>Lasvit</strong> collection <strong>Bubbles</strong><br />
<strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong>. While the genesis of Champagne sparkl<strong>in</strong>g w<strong>in</strong>e dwells<br />
under the veil of secret and its orig<strong>in</strong> should most likely be blamed<br />
on its makers’ fault and the second fermentation, the birth of the<br />
<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong>, the fi zzy spatial object is crystal clear, wilful and<br />
targeted. While the safe storage of the fi zzy w<strong>in</strong>e is assigned to<br />
Frenchmen age-old rivals, the Englishmen, who <strong>in</strong> the 17th century<br />
have found the technology of manufactur<strong>in</strong>g very thick glass that<br />
does not break so easily, the perfect shape and aesthetics of the<br />
<strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong> should be assigned to thousand-year-old tradition<br />
of the Czech glassmak<strong>in</strong>g, that has ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>ed its rare position <strong>in</strong><br />
the world of glassmak<strong>in</strong>g s<strong>in</strong>ce the Gothic.<br />
F<strong>in</strong>e matured <strong>Bubbles</strong> popped up from the art of the Czech<br />
glassmak<strong>in</strong>g designers and glass-work masters, always fresh with<br />
a versatile refl exive tone, smart, space friendly and always of an<br />
outstand<strong>in</strong>g aesthetic class. The object can fulfi l the function of<br />
light<strong>in</strong>g fi xture as well as it has a power to fi ll up the room with<br />
specifi c atmosphere. Its remarkable conception makes it impossible<br />
for the viewer to perceive it only <strong>in</strong> a practical sense. Multiplicity,<br />
spatial make-up, an abstract form of it and a light <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />
ensure this emotional light<strong>in</strong>g whirl with a stir of emotion. The<br />
sphere, the bubble, <strong>in</strong> other word, which stands for the determ<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />
shape of the object, is also the natural constituent of the glass<br />
material and obvious part of the matter. Its surface refl ects the<br />
world around and transforms the image of it due to its ability to<br />
cast optical spells prompt<strong>in</strong>g the viewer’s imag<strong>in</strong>ation <strong>in</strong>to the<br />
plays of light, shape and motion.<br />
Popularity of Champagne w<strong>in</strong>e steadily grew, among other reasons,<br />
for the bubbles <strong>in</strong> w<strong>in</strong>e somehow speed up the fl ow of alcohol<br />
<strong>in</strong>to the blood. The <strong>Bubbles</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Space</strong> by <strong>Lasvit</strong> are the Champagne<br />
among all spatial light<strong>in</strong>gs, the fi zz that really gets you drunk with<br />
stirr<strong>in</strong>g emotion fl ow<strong>in</strong>g freely <strong>in</strong>to your m<strong>in</strong>d.
