Designer Glass Ornaments ‘Eye’ by Bystro Design

Decadent designer glass ornaments with a deep ‘vascular’ heart of glass.

These ‘Eye’ pieces by the flawless team at Bystro are available in violet, green or olive.

They throb with a vibrancy that is almost palpable and audiences gravitate toward them, to stare deeply into their soul.

Mesmerising to look at, and a striking 45 cm tall, these are a great centrepiece for a room or lobby.

Beauty really is in the Eye of the beholder!

For more ethereal beauty, why not see our collection of art sculptures.

N.B. The images shown are an example of the ones in the series. Each piece is handmade and therefore there will be small variations in colour, shape and pattern. Each one is completely unique and signed by the artist.

Designer Glass Ornaments Artist

Bystro Design Studio was established in 2005, combining the talents of glass artists Dagmar Pánková and partner Leos Smejkal.

The studio specialises in art glass and glass product design, delivering a range of premium quality items that are perfect for centrepieces for country homes, luxury urban apartments and corporate HQs.

Dagmar and Leos put emphasis on perfecting their hand-crafted treatment of the final pieces. Their pieces can be bold, humourous or exaggerated in style.

The pair met while studying glassmaking in Kamenicky, Senov, where Dagmar taught glassmaking since 2004. They have now joined forces to build a ground-breaking glass studio.

Dagmar is a contemporary visual artist, born in 1971, who began her career as a designer for Egermann-Exbor Glassworks, Novy Bor.

After her studies, where she specialised in painting on glass, she went to the UK in 1995 and attended ceramics courses run by artist David Fry (Newcastle upon Tyne).

In 1997, Dagmar began work on her new collections, in cooperation with leading Czech glass companies such as Klara Hut, Primaglass, Slavia, Ajeto and Sans Souci.

She has exhibited her exceptional work at Pinakothek Der Moderne München, Germany (2006) and the Museum of Decorative Arts Prague, Czech Republic (2008).

Dagmar puts emphasis on form and utility, with a hyperbolic slant and wit.

Leoš Smejkal was born in 1973 and, after studying glass cutting at the Secondary School of Glassmaking in Kamenický Šenov, moved on to the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava. It was here at the Academy that he created his first mixed media masterpiece, ‘The Rose Garden’ – a winged, stained glass altar with old German Gothic motifs that pay homage to classic German paintings.
