Latvia, the pearl of the European Nordic region, is a land where natural beauty flourishes in perfect harmony with its rich cultural heritage. Our designs and colors are inspired by Latvia’s serene landscapes, reflecting the tranquil tones of its forests, lakes, and coastlines, offering a true escape into untouched wilderness.

The changing seasons paint the country in vibrant shades, from autumn’s golden hues to winter’s crisp whites. Warm, earthy tones evoke the essence of amber, a precious stone often found on Latvian beaches after a storm.

This Nordic nation invites you to experience the harmony between nature and design, bringing the essence of its breathtaking landscape into your home. We believe that design is a way to tell the world about a country and its people.

artis nimanis

Artis Nimanis is one of the most recognized Latvian glass artists, known for his minimalist, functional designs that merge technology with craftsmanship. For over twenty years, Artis Nīmanis has pushed the boundaries of glass art, using advanced glassblowing techniques to create unique, handcrafted pieces.

“Sometimes,

it feels like you understand, but then the stereotype shatters, and you realize you know nothing. You think you’re making big strides in solving technological challenges, only to see they’re tiny steps. There’s always something new being discovered,”

Artis Nīmanis reflects on his work with glass.

technique

The creative director has researched and experimented to master the nuances of mirroring technology. This advanced process treats materials in a vacuum environment with stainless steel or titanium, resulting in an ultrathin, high-quality coating that is both food-safe and resistant to oxidation. This meticulous technique seamlessly combines cutting-edge technology with artistic craftsmanship, producing glassware that is not only functional but also visually stunning. The glass surface is given a mirror effect that, by bending light, creates an illusion of optical play.

distinctive and unique

The special, high-quality glass coating with a mirror effect seamlessly incorporates the surrounding environment into the object, becoming a signature of an&angel.

The bowls and vases are mouth-blown from molten glass available in various colors. This process fuses two layers of glass into one, allowing light to flow between them, giving each piece its distinct brilliance and style.

The mirror effect, created by a unique metalinfused glass coating, seamlessly incorporates the surrounding environment into the object.

The wall sculptures are custom-made using the artist’s proprietary technique, where glass is expertly fused, cut, ground, and polished. Finished with a titanium coating and featuring a wavy glass surface, these artworks create a captivating interplay of reflections.

fusing layers of glass

Mouth-blowing such large, intricate pieces requires immense precision and years of experience. Each product’s creation demands careful control to achieve the perfect form and thickness.

Polishing and finishing the rims is a meticulous process that further showcases the artisans’ expertise. This attention to detail ensures that every iterm meets the high standards of an&angel, exuding refined elegance and timeless beauty.
