Symboll
Wine, Water Glass

Symboll was created by the Czech design studio LLEV. The collection consists of glassware formed by the organic processes of mycelium growth. Although seen in other forms of design, these biotechnological approaches are the first of its kind in glass production. By using natural materials, along with waste from agricultural crops and sawdust, the studio has introduced a revolutionary method for material innovation. LLEV uses mycelial processes to create the organic moulds for the collection. Since every mycelial mould’s structure changes during the blowing process, each glass object has its own unique imprint – suspending guests between modernity and the beauty of the natural world. In addition to a candle holder and vase, the Symboll collection also includes water, whiskey and long-drink glasses. Each product is made of recyclable glass and every mould is naturally biodegradable.
