Glassblowing expert Tracy Glover returns with a new series of pendant and semi-flushmount lights – the Blackburn Ceiling Lights collection. Comprised of two new designs available in multiple, customizable shapes, colors, sizes, and patterns, the Blackburn collection provides pieces that can be as decor-specific as necessary and that are always fresh and eye-catching.

The collection features a brand new Calamari pattern, which is rooted in sketches Glover made of seed pods found on a hike, which led to a series of vegetable drawings, including onions and corn cobs.She wanted to consider how to interpret the drawings as glass vessels. Murrini, a traditional Roman glassblowing process, fuses bundles of colored glass canes, then slices through them. The effect is similar to a cross section of the corn cob. Glover loves Calamari's capricious nature – no two are alike.

The Blackburn Pendant is suspended from a round canopy offered in choice of five metal finishes. The pendant may be made in any of five shapes – Globe, Barrel, Canister, Enoki or Fishbowl – and a range of sizes. A variation on the canopy is available with multiple ports to transform the single pendant design into a multi-light design. Patterns include a bubbled effect made with the Italian technique Primavera, the two-tone Ombre Primavera, Striped, Lace, Twist, Calamari, Licorice Stick and Ostrich.

The Blackburn Semi-Flushmount is a glass diffuser available in Globe or Fishbowl shape. Five-inch round canopy offered in choice of five metal finishes. Eight patterns in 16 solid colors and 29 colorways.

About the designer: Tracy Glover began as an architecture student at Virginia Tech when she was first mesmerized by a glassblower’s photo in a RISD catalogue. Soon she had applied for a transfer and moved to Providence for the glass BFA that would change her life. Now, Glover conceives her lighting, which includes table and floor lamps, wall sconces and pendants, as a system of interchangeable parts offering multiplicity in choices for the proportion and shape of base components, glass color, lampshade fabric, metal finishes and lamping.
