EMILIE LEMARDELEY

Emilie Lemardeley is a French designer. She began her career working mainly for other well-known designers before deciding to set up her own studio in 2012. As a designer her foremost priority is to create objects which enlighten the rooms they inhabit. She views herself as bridging the gap between the avant-garde and the traditional within French arts and crafts. In order to birth her unique objects she has created a successful dialogue with the best carpenters and metal craftsmen, including glass blowers and gilders. Her exceptional objects are simultaneously unique yet archetypal of the famous French “savoir-faire”.

The ADAMAS lightings take their inspiration from Greek myth; the story of a young man transformed into a precious stone, a diamond, by the God Chronos. Legend says he was the most precious and beautiful stone in the world, inspiring strength and luck within those who possessed it. Handmade in France, the object’s structure is brass and the glass ball is the final result of amazing craftwork; handblown and then faceted by hand like a precious stone. Thus, the result is each time different and unique.
