Description

Good day,

my temporary name is RHINO.
If you like this name, we can keep it.
Or I will receive a new individual name from you.

Either way is fine with me; I just wanted to introduce myself to you.

It is also important for me to tell you a little bit about myself. There are a few things you may not know about me.

I come from a very hot area. My head was almost 1200°C when it was shaped and the colored glass and gold leaf coating was applied. I’m quite robust by nature and I occasionally get the first small injuries from the rough handling of the glass furnace. I think that suits me.

My body of steel was also formed into a strong torso at high temperatures and under the influence of great forces. Initially, a wafer-thin, almost dust-fine rust appears on the surface. Occasionally it may look a little patchy, but over time and depending on the weather it will develop into a dense and even “rust skin” that gives me that certain something.

Initially, the rust can be washed away by precipitation and collect at the bottom. Therefore, please choose a location with a insensitive surface for me.

There is a light hidden inside me. Inner values are very important to me. The unobtrusive but atmospheric lighting expresses this well.

If I do not light up despite an existing electrical connection, the illuminant inside me must be changed. For this I am simply laid gently on my side in the grass or on a blanket. The base plate that is then visible can be loosened with a wrench. Then you reach the lamp.

It has two light sources, one of which is directed forwards and one that shines backwards. You open the corresponding side of the lamp to have access to the bulb.

If my face looks a little dusty and lackluster, I’m happy to be cleaned with a damp cloth. Silicone spray or matt glass coater (available from Glasstudio BOROWSKI) are a wonderful care and give my glass components a new velvety shine.

When I stand up straight in my place afterwards, I hope that you can see how happy I am!

Well, now I’ve said enough about myself. If you have any further questions, it is better to contact the BOROWSKI glass studio.

Yours, RHINO

RHINO | Light Object - Sculpture Park Andernach

RHINO in the sculpture park Andernach

The outdoor facilities of the Hotel Einstein at the Römerpark in Andernach are designed as a landscape and sculpture park and invite you to stroll and marvel.

A permanent exhibition of Borowski OUTDOOR OBJECTS has been created around the hotel. The numerous sculptures and light objects provide artistic enjoyment and fit perfectly into the overall picture of the complex.

 

Light Object

BOROWSKI Light Objects

Every outdoor area gains quality through light, because brightness creates a feeling of security and creates an atmospheric ambience.

Our light objects are developed as outdoor sculptures and withstand the influences of wind and weather all year round without any problems. Of course they can also be used indoors.

Noble, atmospheric and somehow magical

Give your favorite place in the garden or on the balcony a magical touch! Whether as a cheerful eye-catcher between your flowers, a leading art object on your lawn or imaginative and original in the branches of a tree … there are no limits to your creativity. In summer they invite you to linger with their atmospheric light. In winter they resist frost and darkness and ensure a good mood with their strong colors and warm light.

The light objects are equipped with 6 meters of external cable.
The bulbs are included.

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.

OUTDOOR OBJECTS

OUTDOOR OBJECTS

SUNNY AND SAFE – IN ALL WEATHERS

The friendly figures and characters of the OUTDOOR OBJECTS ensure “fabulous” encounters in gardens and parks – in the true sense of the word. As if from another world chameleons, birds, armadillos, and all sorts of creatures appear – bringing a little piece of their world into our own. Whether it is as cheerful and lively wind chime, lustrous light object, or as a colourful sculpture made of glass and rusty steel, the OUTDOOR OBJECTS form a wonderful bond with their surroundings – inviting their owners to smile, dream and linger. These highly individual, happy visitors will enliven your garden or balcony and give your favourite spot a very special magic. The OUTDOOR OBJECTS are weatherproof and can stand outside all year long. All these art objects are handmade and hand blown with the utmost care.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When fixing your object, you should make sure that it stands securely and does not wobble or tip even in the event of 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.
