Christmas is almost upon us! (Sort of...)

"Where did the year go?!" We hear you ask. No idea!

The build up to Christmas is always a busy period here at Glassdomain, which is why we are running out of time to guarantee Christmas deliveries.

Because our luxury curved glass furniture from SOVET and FIAM is imported from Italy, we usually aim for a turnaround time of 6 weeks, which means any orders placed now would not be delivered until the new year.

However! Fear not, because the UV bonded glass furniture we produce here in England is usually delivered within 4 weeks. Therefore, customers who order by Wednesday 23rd November can expect to receive their shiny new glass furniture from Glassdomain before Christmas.

Sovet Italia

Along with our bespoke UV bonded glass furniture, we are also able to sell stunning pieces from the two major design houses of Italy; Sovet and Fiam

In this blog post we'd like to tell you everything you need to know about our friends at Sovet Italia.

Sovet was founded at the end of the 80’s, the period in which glass became a very important protagonist in the furniture market. The modern glass-processing technique enables joining the maximum artistic expression with innovative and functional projects, combining tradition, advanced technologies and contemporary design.

Starting from the 90’s the company confirms itself as a leader of the sector thanks to its range of products which stand out for the originality of the forms, colours and finishes; pure protagonists of a unique and unmistakable space.

During the following years Sovet tested new solutions for the use of bent glass and refined its own project culture till developing, in 2003, together with Altherr Lievore Molina’s studio, the DIVETRO collection: a real turning point for the company. The collection represents an ambitious research project with strong contents of formal and technologic innovation, marked by the chic minimalism of Altherr Lievore Molina’s studio.

In the last few years SOVET perceives the need to enlarge its offer including also other materials in order to satisfy the requirements of a wider and demanding market. From this experience and the meeting with architect Gianluigi Landoni arises the present Sovet’s research, with transversal, innovative and original proposals, for home and contract.

Today, Sovet has a production area of 9000 square metres and its products are sold in over 50 countries throughout the world.

We are an official seller for Sovet Italia right here in the UK. To view there stunning glass furniture on our website, click here.
