Brass Dome · White Alabaster · Semi Flush Mount
Alabaster has been carved into lamps since antiquity, prized for one quality no glass can copy — light passes through the stone rather than around it. Here a white alabaster globe sits beneath a hand-finished brass dome, and when lit, the veining surfaces from within like clouds in a pale sky. Off, it reads as quiet sculpture; on, it becomes a soft, lantern-like glow. Close to the ceiling and calm in profile, it brings warmth to hallways, bedrooms, kitchens, and entryways.
Please Note: Each piece features unique natural veining.

FAQ
Why does my shade look different from the photos? +
White Alabaster is a natural stone — every piece has its own veining pattern and subtle tonal gradient, so the shade you receive will not match the product photos exactly. This variation is a mark of genuine stone, not a defect, and it is what makes each fixture one of a kind.
Which bulb do you recommend? +
A G9 LED bulb at 3–6W in warm white (2700K) gives the softest, most flattering light through the alabaster shade and brings out its natural veining. The fixture accepts up to 60W per bulb, so most G9 LEDs work comfortably. Avoid cool-white or daylight bulbs — they can look clinical against the white stone and flatten the veining.
Is this fixture dimmable? +
The fixture itself is compatible with dimming. To dim it, pair a dimmable G9 LED bulb with a TRIAC-compatible dimmer switch (e.g. Lutron, Leviton Decora). Standard non-dimmable bulbs will run at full brightness only.
What ceiling height does it suit? +
With a total drop of 19 cm, the fixture sits close to the ceiling and suits most standard rooms from 2.4 m (8 ft) upward. Because it's semi-flush rather than pendant, it won't hang low enough to feel intrusive in halls, bedrooms, or kitchens.
Can I install it on a sloped ceiling? +
We recommend installation on flat ceilings only. On a sloped or vaulted ceiling, the canopy will not sit flush and the fixture may not mount securely. Choose a pendant or sloped-ceiling-adapter fixture for angled surfaces.
Is it safe to use in a bathroom? +
Yes — for dry and damp bathroom zones (e.g. the ceiling above a vanity or mirror, away from direct spray). It is not rated for installation directly above a shower or tub where steam and water contact are constant.
How do I clean the shade? +
Wait until the bulb is cool, then dust the alabaster with a soft dry cloth only. Avoid water, soap, and any cleaner — alabaster is porous and can absorb moisture and stain. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the brass finish.

The alabaster story
Quarried in Spain, glowing from within
Spanish alabaster is a soft, translucent stone. Cut into shades a few millimetres thick, it turns an LED into a warm, even glow with the veining floating inside. Each shade is cut from its own block, so tone and pattern differ slightly from piece to piece — that is the material, not a fault.
Sculpted by earth,
softened by light.
Rare natural alabaster, hand-carved by master artisans and illuminated from within. Every piece is unrepeatable — a singular convergence of geology and craft.
"Alabaster does not merely hold light — it breathes with it, casting a warmth that cannot be manufactured, only discovered."
Formed through millions of years of slow crystallisation, alabaster is among the world's most ancient decorative stones. When illuminated, it yields a quiet, golden luminosity — gentle, organic, irreducibly human. Our collection exists to honour that rarity, designing forms that allow the stone to speak without interruption.
No two stones
are ever alike.
Alabaster carries within it a geological autobiography — millions of years compressed into veining, crystalline structures, and tonal shifts that no craftsman could plan or replicate. Five expressive patterns emerge most consistently in our collection.
Pure
Clear SurfaceA near-uniform honey surface with barely perceptible variation — the rarest and most meditative expression of the stone.
Ink Marbling
Flowing VeinsSoft, fluid grey veining reminiscent of East Asian ink painting — atmospheric, unhurried, deeply contemplative.
Lightning Veins
Sharp BranchingBold, branching mineral lines that fracture the surface with dramatic precision — striking from any angle and in any light.
Ice Crack
Angular FracturesGeometric fissures suspended within the stone — sculptural formations that diffuse and scatter light with quiet drama.
Snowflake
Crystalline FlecksSuspended constellations of lighter crystalline matter — a delicate drift across the surface that catches light from within.
Natural Variance Is Not a Defect
Because alabaster is a living natural stone, every piece carries its own unique veining and tonal variation — a quality we celebrate rather than suppress. We are unable to specify, select, or replicate any particular pattern. Ink marbling, lightning veins, ice-crack formations, and snowflake inclusions are inherent characteristics of the material and do not constitute a quality issue. If you prefer a perfectly uniform finish, this collection may not align with your expectations — and we kindly invite you to consider this before placing your order.
One material,
every room in the home.
From the grandeur of a double-height chandelier to the intimate glow of a bedside lamp — alabaster scales with intention, adapting to every room's rhythm without sacrificing presence.
Five stages of
quiet craftsmanship.
Every alabaster lamp begins as raw stone and arrives in your hands only after passing through a sequence of precise, unhurried steps — performed by artisans who know how to listen to the material before they shape it.
Material Selection
Rough blocks are hand-assessed at the quarry for translucence, structural integrity, and depth of colour within.
Precision Cutting
Diamond instruments slice the stone into workable panels, guided by its natural grain rather than against it.
Sculpting
Artisans turn, carve, and hollow each form by hand — responding to the stone's character as it is revealed.
Hand Polishing
Progressively finer grits refine the surface until the stone's interior luminosity is fully realised.
Final Assembly
LED modules, solid brass fittings, and hand-finished hardware are fitted and inspected — each piece individually, never in batches.
Seventeen finishes for the
metal that holds the stone.
Every alabaster fixture is completed by its metalwork — the canopy, stem, arms, and fittings that carry the stone and frame its glow. Each is available in seventeen numbered finishes from the Radilum Finishes Library: brass, bronze, iron, steel, nickel, and chrome characters, hand-applied and sealed, or a custom patina grown to match a sample you send us.

Order by number, not by name. "Antique brass," "aged brass," "burnished brass" — ask five workshops what those mean and five different metals come back. Finish 04 is the same physical sample in our studio, on the atelier bench, and on your packing list.
And because no screen renders metal honestly, we ship the physical panels before anything is committed. Hold them against your alabaster's veining, your cabinetry and wall paint, at the hour you actually use the room — then send the number.
To own an alabaster lamp is to welcome a piece of natural sculpture into your home — shaped by the earth over millennia, refined by artisans over weeks, and completed only in the moment it is illuminated.
Radilum Design Studio
Treat it as the
rare object it is.
Alabaster is genuine natural stone — each fixture carries substantial weight and deserves the same careful handling you would extend to any fine sculpture. A few simple practices will preserve both piece and electrical integrity for a lifetime.
-
01Never lift by the power cord.The cord is not load-bearing. Tension applied to it can damage internal LED wiring and lead to connection failure over time.
-
02Always support the stone body.Cradle the fixture with both hands when moving or installing. For larger pieces, two people are strongly recommended.
-
03Clean gently; dust often.A dry, soft cloth is all that is needed. Avoid water, solvents, and abrasives — they will dull the polished surface irreversibly.
See it in motion.
