Sculptural Light: Discover the Kinetic Elegance of the Lyric Collection by Hubbardton Forge

 
 

When lighting transcends its functional purpose, it becomes art. The Lyric Collection, designed by Ori Goldberg for Hubbardton Forge, is a masterclass in this transformation. Inspired by the intricate world of handcrafted jewelry, these fixtures bring a sense of "lyrical art" into the modern home or commercial space.

The Inspiration: Jewelry in Motion

The core of the Lyric Collection lies in its rhythmic composition. Designer Ori Goldberg notes, "The fixture is inspired by hand-made rings much like in jewelry." Unlike static lighting, each piece in the collection features hand-forged and hammered oval metal rings. These rings are designed to move freely, creating a gentle kinetic elegance that catches the eye and changes slightly with the air’s natural movement. Each teardrop glass light is embraced by a beautifully-shaped, sleek metal form. It isn't just a lamp; it’s a hanging sculpture.

 
Masterful Craftsmanship and Details

Hubbardton Forge is renowned for its "made to order" American craftsmanship, and the Lyric Collection highlights their technical skill through key design elements:

  • Stylized Hooks: Rather than standard fasteners, the collection uses jewelry-like forged and hammered hooks that serve as artistic connectors.

  • Hammered Textures: The hand-forged metal rings offer a tactile, artisan quality that reflects light beautifully.

Personalize Your Space

One of the most compelling features of the Lyric Collection is its customizable nature. Whether you are lighting a grand foyer, an intimate dining nook, or a common area in a hospitality space, this collection allows for personalized configurations and adjustable heights to fit your specific aesthetic. Available in all standard interior finishes, it ensures the piece complements your existing hardware and color palette.

Why Choose the Lyric Collection?

Bringing a delicate sense of whimsy and wonder to a room is no easy feat. The Lyric Collection achieves this by balancing the weight of hand-forged metal with the lightness of movement and the elegance of glass. It is a perfect choice for those who value quality and want their lighting to tell a story of craftsmanship.
