RK Signature Architectural
Art Glass Furnishings Collection
State of the Custom Cast Glass Art. This magnificent state of the art Cast Glass Art is a first in functional architectural glass design.
Elegant yet Bold. Transparent yet Massive. “A Visual
Contradiction."
“Form and Function are the two
pillars of Design. My Medium of choice is Always Glass."
Robert Kaindl THE JOURNEY
I visualized this project
three years ago unfortunately, the technology had not been developed
to create such a massive glass structure - until now. The daunting scale
of my desire to create a unique masterwork would not be compromised.
Perfect Cast Glass Planks
without bubbles or any imperfections, I was told by industry experts that
my expectations of this project was simply impossible. I was
committed to my vision and embarked on a 38 month
journey, working tirelessly with a custom Kiln production team for
15 months. Finally, I had my custom Casting Kiln and the perfectly Crystal Clear Glass
that I visualized from the beginning. 96 inches Long (8 feet
long) x 7 inches Wide x 2.5 inches Thick. These massive glass
components for this table weighs 2,000 pounds.
THE FOUNDATION
Each virtually indestructible Stainless
Steel Base is custom made by hand with right angle edging,
available in multiple finishes to include high gloss nickel chrome to a
soft burnished industrial surface. The surfaces facing the glass will
have a proprietary integrated internal lighting system, which
provides a stunning controllable ambient glow.
GLASS IMAGE EXAMPLES
(to the right):
Perfectly Crystal Clear (no bubbles or imperfections) Glass 3 inches
Thick by 7
inches Wide and 16 inches Long. The actual finished pieces are
96 inches (8 feet) Long. Each brilliant glass plank is
a study in perfection, crystal clear, with a high sheen polish and
beveled edges to produce the most brilliant prismatic spectrum.
