Rose Pearls


Abu Dhabi grew out of sand dunes, the neverending horizon of nothing. But don’t let the golden sand fool you: the desert is full of mysteries. Follow the sand-inspired wall deep into the lobby of the Grand Hyatt hotel, and look above!

There is beauty in this world, and natural beauty sometimes lies hidden in something as small as a grain of sand – the tiny piece of matter that can lead to the creation of dazzling glass as well as one of the most valuable gems on earth: the rose pearl.

In the lighting installation for the lobby of Grand Hyatt Abu Dhabi, LASVIT connected these two natural materials together and created a piece with an almost magical shine – rose pearls out of glass.
