Mastering the Art of Glassblowing—Like Never Before

About the studio's Creative Director, Lara K.

Lara’s artistry has always pushed boundaries. As a globally renowned designer, her work has graced the homes of royalty, Hollywood’s elite, and collectors who demand nothing but the exceptional. From sculpted leather masterpieces to bespoke furniture, every creation she touches is a testament to vision, craftsmanship, and uncompromising elegance.

While traveling through Europe, Lara found herself mesmerized by the way light danced through the facets of a diamond in a high-end boutique. The way it refracted, split, and shimmered in an almost hypnotic display. It wasn’t just beauty—it was an experience. That moment sparked a vision: What if glassware could capture that same brilliance? What if a drinking glass could transform an everyday ritual into an extraordinary moment?

Returning to her studio, she immersed herself in the centuries-old art of crystal glassmaking, studying the interplay of geometry, light, and craftsmanship. She saw a gap—most drinkware was either overly traditional or lacked the artistry that defined true luxury. She knew she could do better.

For Modernism, Lara designed a glass that was bold, sculptural, and innovative—a fusion of art and function. Inspired by the precision of diamond faceting and the organic curves of handcrafted sculpture, each glass is crafted through a meticulous 40-step process, ensuring a perfect balance of weight, refraction, and elegance. Every sip becomes an experience, every pour a celebration of artistry.

Lara’s approach to design has always been about elevating the ordinary into the extraordinary. Now, with her signature crystal glassware, she has done exactly that—reinventing the way we drink, one faceted masterpiece at a time.
