Calyx
Starting at $8,500 USD
Our Calyx pendant was gleaned from its namesake botanical form, with a controlled yet gentle unfurling blossom of proprietary alloys and glass. The three nested nude shades are hand blown in New York, while the canopy is hand spun in a 150-year-old French workshop that employs historical techniques mastered over many centuries and generations. The two combine to create a graceful, fluted silhouette, with an attachment plate and scalloped collar forming a meticulously crafted connection.
Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer’s Roman and Williams Guild Original Designs are each branded with our insignia and delivered with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Please note that lighting exceeding 36” in height is made with multi-piece stems, where slim seams may be visible.
