Natural Alabaster Shade · Brass AND Black Body
A small wall sconce with a quiet glow. The Santorini's slim metal body cradles a hand-cut alabaster shade — when lit, the natural stone glows from within with its own one-of-a-kind veining. Compact at 34 cm tall, it works as a single accent or a matched pair along a hallway, beside a bed, or flanking a mirror.
Each piece is unique. Every alabaster shade is cut from natural stone, so veining patterns, color tone, and grain direction will differ from the photographs shown — that singularity is part of working with natural stone, not a defect.

Body Finish — Choose at Checkout
Brass
Warm antique brass — hand-finished with a pre-aged tone that pairs naturally with the cream alabaster and warms cooler walls.
Black
Matte black powder-coated body — modern, architectural, and provides a strong contrast against the glowing alabaster.
Alabaster shade is constant. Both finishes ship with the same hand-cut white alabaster shade — only the metal body color changes between variants.

Bulb not included. The Santorini uses an E12 or E14 candelabra-base bulb. We recommend a warm white (2700K) LED at 4–6W — warm light brings out the honey tones in the alabaster veining. Avoid cool-white or daylight bulbs, which read harsh through natural stone.
Installation
- Hardwired wall installation — a licensed electrician is recommended.
- Fits a standard single-gang wall box. All mounting hardware is included.
- Dimmable when paired with a dimmable LED bulb and a TRIAC-compatible wall dimmer (e.g. Lutron Skylark, Leviton Decora).
- Recommended placement: at eye level (≈ 150 cm / 60″ from floor) for corridors and entries; 75–90 cm above the bedside surface for bedroom use.
- Indoor use only — keep away from damp locations and direct steam.

FAQ
Will the alabaster veining vary between units? +
Yes — every shade is hand-cut from natural alabaster, so veining patterns, color depth, and grain direction differ from piece to piece and from the product photographs. This is the signature of working with natural stone, not a defect. If you're ordering a pair (e.g. flanking a bed or mirror), order at the same time so the two shades are cut from the same batch for the closest match.
How do I clean the alabaster? +
Switch off the wall power and let the bulb cool. Dust the alabaster shade with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water, glass cleaners, and any chemical solutions — alabaster is porous and can absorb moisture, leaving permanent staining. Dust the brass body with a soft dry cloth as well.
Which bulb do you recommend? +
A warm white (2700K) E12 or E14 candelabra LED at 4–6W. Warm light brings out the honey tones in the alabaster veining and creates the soft, romantic glow the Santorini is designed for. Avoid cool-white or daylight bulbs — they read harsh through natural stone and flatten the veining.
Is the lamp dimmable? +
Yes — paired with a dimmable LED bulb and a TRIAC-compatible wall dimmer (e.g. Lutron Skylark, Leviton Decora), the Santorini dims smoothly. Note: not all candelabra LEDs are dimmable — verify the bulb specifications before purchasing.
Will the brass body develop a patina? +
The Antique Brass finish is hand-finished with a pre-aged surface and remains stable under normal indoor conditions — it will not patina or tarnish dramatically over time. Light tonal variation across the brass is part of the hand-finishing process. The Matte Black finish is a sealed powder coat and stays uniform.
How big is this lamp and where does it work best? +
The Santorini is compact — only ∅ 13 cm × H 34 cm (∅ 5.1" × H 13.4"). It suits bedside walls, narrow hallways, powder rooms, entryways, and mirror flanking. For wider walls or as the only light source over a bed, consider pairing two side by side.
What's the difference between Brass and Black? +
Same body, same alabaster shade — only the metal color differs. Brass brings warm amber tones that complement cream walls, natural wood, and traditional palettes. Black is matte and architectural, providing strong contrast against light walls and pairing well with modern, industrial, or high-contrast interiors.

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.

Finishes 01–17 · brass, bronze, iron, steel, nickel, chrome, black · custom patinas matched on request
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.

Love them. Doesnt give much light, but perfect for a night light and adding good looking to my room.
Looks great, because of the limited voltage its not quite as bright as I wish but it works.

These sconces fit exceptionally well in a small bathroom. The matte finish makes them look more expensive than they are, and the price point was excellent. They are dimmable and add great atmosphere to the bathroom. Very happy with them, and you will be too.
Great value for the money. Looks great in our hallway. We installed them upside down but may also see how they look right side up. Easy to install and dimmable was a "must have".
Very pretty! A bit smaller than what I envisioned but still works well in my space. Bought 2 to go on either side of mantel.
The items look good and I will have it installed this weekend. No photos yet.
These sconces look beautiful in my foyer. They are very sleek and actually emit a good amount of light.
These lights take my bathroom to the next level. In love!
Very nice lights and we are happy with the quality and over finish of them. We purchased four for our newly renovated bathroom. We had the brushed gold ones and the color is light and a nice look.
I have not installed yet but inspected them and they seem like a great quality and look just like the photo.
Sooo pretty. Totally recommend it. Theyre kind of heavy and look really good quality. Also gives good light )
? We use these lights in our bathroom remodel and love them.
Love these sconces in main and guest bathrooms. I used corncob lightbulbs.
