“Pendant lights have become so popular that it can be challenge to find something really unique. That’s why we were so excited by Jeremy Pyles’ hanging glass globe and cylinders. The visible bulbs and filaments evoke the era of Thomas Edison but with a contemporary sensibility that cleverly bridges past and present. And because each fixture is hand-blown, you’re guaranteed never to see another just like it.”

Wallpaper Bespoke Project for Chivas Regal – Cheers to Sublime Design

Wallpaper 06 Oct blurb

Jeremy Pyles, who started his career as a photographer, describes his first foray into product design as an accident.
However, his picture perfect, hand-blown glass creations are anything but. Citing nature as his key influence, Pyles strives to create simple, organic, yet interesting forms. His signature line of ‘Stamen‘ lamps, inspired by the structure of a flower, have become some of New York’s most highly coveted objects. And the success of the lamps led to him launching his own East Village interiors boutique, Niche Modern, which has put him firmly on the city’s design map. Like Chivas Regal 18 Year Old, one of the world’s finest blends of whiskey, Niche Modern puts incredible craft and care into its pieces, hand-making each to ensure a truly unique offering. But, while Pyles is dedicated to producing well-crafted, unique products, he took a different approach for his work for Chivas Regal 18.


The complexity of this blended whiskey, its amber colour (the result of ageing in oak casks for a minimum of 18 years), and the shape of its distinctive bottle influenced a design far more intricate than the artist’s previous work. A layered, interlocking series of five vessels (three of which are pictured here), blown in a rich shade of amber, the piece not only echoes the Chivas Regal 18 appreciation of quality hand-craftsmanship, rich colour and individuality, but is also a stand-alone object of beauty, reflecting the luxurious essence of the whiskey.”

-Wallpaper, October 2006

Wallpaper* Magazine gives Niche Modern quite a write up for its unique method of style and design, referencing custom glass work done for a special project for Chivas Regal whiskey. Check out our hand-made vases here.
