About the Designers
Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer are the founders and principals of Roman and Williams, Roman and Williams Guild, La Mercerie, and Guild Gallery. In addition to finding and assembling the world’s most prodigious artists for their modern guild of the senses, the husband-and-wife team prolifically makes, creates, and leads. In their work, nature serves as a timeless source of inspiration for the future of how we live.

Hand blown shades in our proprietary nude glass are nested, playing off each other to bounce and filter light to enticing effect.

Calyx’s attachment plate meets the fluted shade at a meticulously crafted scalloped collar.

A sublime botanical form that captivates from many angles.

Calyx’s fluted canopy is hand spun at a 150 year-old French workshop, using a brass alloy that is rich in copper, resulting in a warm, nuanced finish.
