Concept

The fascinating effect of a soap bubble oating in the air until it bursts, was the inspiration for a new series of organically shaped glass objects, captured in a geometric wooden frame.
Studio Thier&vanDaalen loves to challenge ancient handcrafts; such as free hand glassblowing and fine woodworking. Fascinated by the two different materials with their own unique properties and treatments; when combined, they have to deal with each other. Wood is commonly used as a mould in free hand glassblowing but never as a definitive part. The glass will mark the wood forever during the process, therefore the wooden mould and the glass piece fit perfectly together. With this new method, they created different pieces to show your precious objects.

When blowing soap bubbles in the air Iris & Ruben had the dream to capture these temporary beauties in a tendril frame. The fascinating effect of a floating bubble which adapt to its surrounding until it snaps, was the inspiration for a new series of objects in glass combined with wood by Studio Thier&vanDaalen.

They came up with the idea to blow a round bubble of glass in a square frame made from wood. To challenge two ancient handcrafts; free glassblowing and fine woodworking. Fascinated by the two different materials with their own unique properties and treatments; when combined, they have to deal with each other.
