Observation and experimentation as fundamental creative forces.

Georgiev Kiril offers a full range of bespoke architecture and interior design services, and small editions of contemporary design pieces rooted in traditional craft. 

We work with techniques like free-blowing (entirely done by mouth and hands, without the use of any molds). And mouth-blowing (done by mouth and hands, but with the use of a crafted mold). We also use other methods like casting and slumping, where sheets of glass are laid over a mold and shaped by the force of gravity.

The appearance of our mouth-blown glass lights changes depending on their thickness, the light bulb inside, reflections from other objects in an interior, and external light. We recommend using dim light bulbs to accentuate the idiosyncratic character of the glass.

We make our mouthblown glass lamps to order and in small series. You can customize our mouth blown pendants in a unique lighting installation for a specific interior. They are E27 light bulb compatible, with LED light bulb included and recommended. Additionally, you can customize the cable and ceiling rose on request. Also, we provide UK and US wiring on request.

Stainless steel lamps

We make our stainless steel metal lamps to order. They are E27 light bulb compatible, with LED light bulb included and recommended. Additionally, you can customize the cable and ceiling rose on request. We provide UK and US wiring on request. All our stainless steel lighting is welded and polished by hand with a brush or mirror finish.

We explore metal forming techniques like cutting, shaping, welding, and polishing to achieve the imagined forms. Stainless steel, also known as chrome or inox, has a higher melting point and presents more difficulty to work with. It gets softer when welded and can bend in all directions. However, we prefer it more to other metals like aluminium – which can get damaged in use easier.

Nonetheless, we are working and open to commissions with other metals like brass and bronze. We also use cast iron and bronze casting methods for very complex shapes and bespoke designs.

Sterling Silver and Pearl Jewelry

We develop our handmade jewelry pieces with local artisans in Bulgaria, where Kiril’s family is from, tapping into a not so well known history of craftsmanship. There, we test various jewelry-making methods, like forging, hammering, texturing, and dapping to create hollow or solid silver shapes. We are interested in traditional as well as contemporary jewelry making techniques.

We make our 925 Sterling Silver and Pearl Earrings and Brooches to order. You can change the configurations of the components in different ways. For instance, you can customize them with a body of 18k solid Gold or solid 925 Sterling Silver cones/spikes and matching precious metal upper ball or a variety of pearls. Additionally, we can also craft our jewelry in 999 Fine Silver upon request.

Due to the handmade character of the pieces, you may find small variations in their color, texture and size.
