Light in Motion: Volant Chandelier by Ross Gardam.

Ross Gardam’s new Volant chandelier, pictured in the recently unveiled Pavilion, a new digital space created by Gardam alongside digital agency Mr. P.

The Volant chandelier triple with solid brass bars anchoring the frosted, fluted glass luminaires.

Ross Gardam’s latest creation, Volant, is a modern chandelier akin to a kinetic sculpture—a static lamp with an uncanny ability to appear in motion. The chandelier debuted at Milan Design Week 2023 in the studio’s solo show Transcendence, alongside a unique curation of other luminaires. Volant is an intriguing design, and just one alongside a mix of new collections and limited edition pieces by Gardam, all based on experimentation with different glass techniques.

Solid brass bars are home to textured, tubular formed-glass elements, angled to give the impression of floating objects revolving around each other, resulting in an elegant, enthralling, yet delicate equilibrium. This modular and architectural nature allows the fixture to span a range of interior spaces.

The solid brass bars are individually machined with the luminaire defined by a white glass diffuser pinned in place to the solid brass bar. Textured tubular glass elements are balanced on the same pins creating a uniquely formed illumination. Each glass element and brass component is made in Australia and assembled in Gardam’s Melbourne-based studio. This sculptural luminaire is available in a selection of glass finishes combined with natural hand-rubbed brass, bronze, and blackened brass with a waxed finish.
