The Studio’s first foray into experimenting with colour in glass, Ova Amber is a notable divergence from the thoughtfully muted tones of the existing Matthew McCormick product line. As a complement to our signature palette of precious metals, the Ova Amber pendant is now available along with Ova White in clear and frosted finishes.
The design for Ova was a departure from our routine philosophy, as was the experimentation in a range of colourways to accent the final product. Typically focused on a deeply iterative process on a path to perfectionism, mastering the ideal colour gradient and diffusion of light for Ova Amber was an exercise in precision while still allowing the glass to reveal its natural attributes. By combining enamel white and bronze glass with an artisanal blow-through technique, Ova Amber boasts an elegant gradation and balance of colour while still maintaining the quintessential Ova form.
Ova Amber’s luminescence brings a depth of movement and ambient warmth through its womb-like, enamel inner body and consciously considered outer shape, from the amount of space between each layer of glass to the primal spine detail which adds depth, and also obscures the light source inside.
Whether hanging alone as a single fixture at a bedside, undulating over a dining table or cascading down a grand stairwell, Ova Amber is a modular pendant system that transcends light as art in a way that is both contemporary and timeless.
Ova Amber pendants are a white enamel inner body and an amber-toned glass outer body with an ombre gradient. Ova in white with a clear or frosted outer body are also available in the collection. Custom configurations and micro-canopies are available upon request.
