Lewin created her first Edison Orb by hand in 2011 while experimenting with recycled glass and aluminum. The form was derived from the original designs and molds used to create her 2008 sculpture The Pool.

Lewin’s Edison Orbs are handmade LED lamps composed of more than 2,000 hand-cut and welded aluminum rings framing 350 vintage handmade glass Edison bulb “shells.” The fixtures cast a unique light pattern and transform spaces ranging from private homes to commercial environments, and have been featured in The Kitchen restaurants nationwide.

Each Edison Orb is unique and handmade by Jen Lewin and her team. Each orb measures approximately 36 inches in diameter by 14 inches tall and weighs roughly 32 pounds.
