Ve DRINKING GLASSES

OBhetos a collection of usables and Ve drinking glass collection

 

Ve glass range

 

Year designed:  2000

Following the success of the OBhetos vessels collection in 1999, Ve drinking vessels was designed and launched in year 2000 to wide acclaim.

 

Ve is a collection of diagrammatic and minimal shaped vessels for the purpose of drinking.  Designed in year 2000, Bowles and Linares looked at widening usual perceptions of the shape, material, size and use of drinking vessels for any hot or cold beverage.  They wanted the designs to be produced in the thinnest glass possible with the additional property of resistance to heat.   These qualities could only be found in borosilicate glass and using blowing techniques for laboratory glassware.  Bowles also applied the ambering finish used on laboratory vessels to protect chemicals from UV light.  It is an additional process of liquid silver applied to the glass that oxidises and caramelises during firing and gives UV protection for some cold beverages when the vessels are used in sunlight.

 

The Claro tubular range has a large number of shapes and sizes than usual and is for any drink, hot or cold.  The variety of glasses and options opens options from the norm for beverages such as whisky, champagne and wine being served in a specific glass.  The beverage takes over visually from the glass when filled – democracy in a glass!  They can be collected in sets of mixed or same.

 

Falda (skirted) two-piece wine glasses uniquely presented the user with the decision whether to drink from the cup and replace on the stem or use with them together.

Four sizes of handled cups fit on or in pre-moulded bases for those who prefer a hot drink on a saucer.

 

Ve vessels have always and always will be hand-blown in England.

***Save Eric Lyons house in Ham from demolition*** ***Save Eric Lyons house in Ham from demolition*** Object by 29th April link in bio- My grandfather William Bowles commissioned Eric Lyons to design 25 Ham Farm Road in 1958.  The brief was to meet the needs of the family as a whole caring for my disabled grandmother with Parkinson’s disease caused by the shock of landmines landing and taking out a street of 49 houses by their shop in Richmond.  Lyons designed a house that allowed the family to care for her on one level, in the later stages of her illness with dignity, in earshot and a beautiful, uplifting space.  The house has a steel frame construction and is largely glass and wood windows with cedar cladding and white marble terrazzo floors throughout on split levels. The roof is copper clad.  My grandfather was a greengrocer and loved horticulture and he was still able to enjoy his plant/conservatory room and garden. Liberated from caring in Victorian houses my family could keep an eye on my grandmother and each other and care in inspiring building.  The house is modest in design from the front and exciting in form from the rear.  It brought sunshine into my family’s life and left it’s mark on them.  This was pivotal moment in post war design and architecture.  Eric Lyons designed a modest house for a rising working class family in humble materials, much like he did for Parkleys flats.  It’s biggest luxury was the space. Ham is an enclave of an extraordinary group of mid century architecture including Stirling and Gowan’s Langham House Close where I was born and returned 30 years later.  It will be all the poorer if Eric Lyons rare privately commissioned house 25 Ham Farm Road is lost from this group.

Crafted to last and finished to sit in the landsca Crafted to last and finished to sit in the landscape of a conservation setting. Final patination underway of this commission of a light for a London garden.  Many hours of discussions over design of details and finish to enable ongoing maintenance of this external weathered fixture. 

Many thanks to @cleo.dickson of Pasfield and Park Interiors for bringing us on to this project and trusting us with such an open brief to design and craft a very special garden light for her client.
