Swedish designers Front created Randomly Crystallised which is a collection of vases and lights for the Swarovski Crystal Palace, a high-end crystal and glass store.
The pieces were made by combining cut crystals with hard blown liquid crystal.
"Front has experimented with crystal as a material," the design company says of itself. "They have let the precision-cut crystals merge with hot liquid crystal to create a method where all the objects get an individual expression."
Call me uncouth, but Randomly Crystallised looks to me like a mashup bunch of pieces of glass at a very heavy, all night rave.
