Optic Lens

Diamond cut crystal glass

Paused at 10%

 

"This piece of glass is destined to become optic lenses used for binoculars or telescopes. A man-made material, it has the feeling of a found gem or crystal." - Edwards & Jay

 

Part of ‘In The Making’ exhibition - more than twenty objects during the manufacturing stage of their construction...curated by Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, the design duo who are perhaps best known for designing the 2012 London Olympic torch.

The pair commented on the exhibition “‘We have always been fascinated by the making process as it is an integral part of our work. We have curated an exhibition that will provide a platform to capture and reveal a frozen moment in the manufacturing process and unveils an everyday object in its unfinished state. Often the object is as beautiful, if not more so, than the finished product!”
