Description

ELVIS – a legend made of glass

ELVIS from the first ODD BIRDS brood of 2019 is a tribute to the “King of Rock ‘n’ Roll”. With a black quiff and striking Hawaiian shirt, this light object sums up the unmistakable style of Elvis Presley – casual, charismatic, with a touch of extravagance and of course – typically Borowski – a wink.

Between hip swing and Hollywood

Elvis Presley shaped music history like no other, captivated audiences with his velvety voice and became an icon through numerous films. He was not so much the origin of rock ‘n roll, but the one who made it suitable for the masses. He was one of the first global pop stars, an artist who played the stage, screen and screen at the same time, setting new standards. Elvis Presley didn’t just make music – he embodied it. His hip swing was a real taboo breaker. Inspired by this great artist, our ELVIS lighting object stands for rhythm, style and a voice that we can still hear today.

For people with a flair for performance

ELVIS does not find its place by chance. It is placed where design is deliberate – on the patio between plants and wood, on a wall in the garden or indoors as a striking contrast. During the day, the colorful floral pattern attracts the eye; in the evening, the light takes over and brings a calm, almost cinematic atmosphere to the surroundings.

Made for outdoors

As an outdoor object, ELVIS is designed for outdoor use. Robustly made and weatherproof, it remains an integral part of its surroundings all year round. In daylight, it has an intense color effect; as dusk falls, it develops its own warm lighting effect – just as natural outdoors as indoors.

Manual Work

Exclusive Glass Art from Borowski Glassworks: Tradition, Craftsmanship, and Innovation Combined

Each object shown here embodies the craftsmanship of our glassmakers. Behind each of the objects that appear so light, cheerful and colorful is a complex, often sweaty manufacturing process. Today only a few people or manufactories master the old, demanding craft of the glassmaker.

In the Borowski Glass Studio you can work with almost all known techniques of cold and hot glass processing - this enables the artists to realize challenging visions and constant new, experimental ideas.

The three brothers Stani-Jan, Wiktor and Pawel Borowski learned how to use the glass pipe and the glowing material from scratch. While Wiktor mainly takes care of sales, Pawel and Stani-Jan work in the factory on site every day at the glass furnace.

Mouth-blown and traditionally handcrafted glass objects may have minor color and shape deviations that are unavoidable for manufacturing reasons. Air inclusions in the glass are a sign of the handmade product and should not be regarded as a defect. There may be deviations of a few centimeters in the size specifications.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When fastening your object, you should make sure that it stands securely and does not wibble or tip over, even in wind or knocks. Use the mounting eyelets we provide for this purpose. Position your object so that it is safe from falling rocks or braking branches. Keep in mind that the objects are very heavy due to their quality and protruding parts (e.g. beaks, eyes, ears, tails, crowns) are not suitable as handles.
