Hand-Cut Alabaster Blocks · Stacked Column · Italian Mid-Century Floor Light
A sculptural floor light in the Italian mid-century stacked-block tradition — hand-cut alabaster squares stacked along a central column on a black brass base, each block rotated slightly off-axis so the silhouette reads as a quietly twisting tower. The integrated LED engine concealed in the base lights the alabaster from below, so the natural cream-and-amber veining of every block reads luminous from within.
Drawn from the 1960s–70s Italian Verona and Pesaro studio tradition of stacked alabaster column lighting. Suited to gallery and library interiors, primary-suite seating areas, contemporary entry foyers, and luxury hotel suites in 5,000+ sq ft estates — for design-led clients drawn to the natural-stone column lamp tradition in modern, gallery, and minimalist interiors.

Installation
- Plug-in installation. No hardwiring required — plug into a standard wall outlet matching your selected plug type.
- Two-person handling required. 63″ tall stacked column — un-crate carefully, lift only from the brass base, never from the alabaster blocks.
- Place on a stable level surface. The square base requires level flooring; hardwood, tile, or low-pile carpet preferred.
- Cord routing. 59″ plug cord exits at the base — plan placement near a wall outlet or use a UL-listed extension cord matched to your region.
- Care: dust the alabaster with a soft dry cloth only. Alabaster is porous — do not use water, glass cleaner, or any liquid; for fingerprints use a dry chamois. Keep away from high-humidity rooms.

FAQ
Where is this light meant to stand? +
It's a statement floor light at 63″ tall — best placed as the focal piece in a gallery niche, beside a primary-suite reading chair, in a library or study corner, or as the anchor of a contemporary entry foyer. The alabaster column lights from within rather than casting room wash, so plan it as architectural ambient lighting paired with separate task or reading sources.
Will my piece match the photographs? +
The form, scale, and brass base are made to consistent specification. The alabaster, however, is hand-cut from natural blocks — veining patterns, translucency, exact tone, and minor mineral inclusions differ between every block, and the stack of blocks per column means the cumulative variation is more visible than on a single-piece alabaster fixture. The light you receive will sit within the same visual language as the photographs but will be visibly distinct.
Is it dimmable? Lutron-compatible? +
The default integrated LED is non-dimming and will not work with standard TRIAC wall dimmers. TRIAC-dimmable wiring is available as a custom build — please specify when contacting us before ordering. The dimmable variant is compatible with Lutron Caséta, Diva, and forward-phase wall dimmers when used with a switched outlet.
Which plug should I choose? +
Select US, UK, AU, or EU at checkout to match your installation region. The integrated LED is wired for AC 110–240V universal voltage so the same light works in any market once the correct plug is fitted. Confirm plug type before ordering — wrong-plug shipments require return.
How do I clean the alabaster? +
Dust with a soft dry microfiber cloth or chamois only. Do not use water, glass cleaner, ammonia, vinegar, or any liquid cleaner — alabaster is porous and water will discolor or stain the surface. For fingerprints use a dry cloth. Keep the fixture away from direct sunlight (UV can shift the cream tone over years) and away from high-humidity rooms.
Suitable for hospitality and trade projects? +
Yes — hospitality-grade. Hand-cut alabaster construction and integrated sealed LED suit luxury hotel suites and presidential suites, gallery and museum interiors, members-club lounges, and Italian mid-century or contemporary residential projects. Because each column is built from unique alabaster blocks, project-quantity orders are coordinated for matched palette within the batch — veining still varies piece to piece. Contact our trade desk at the earliest project stage.
