Product description
This pendant lamp reflects the Art Deco style of the 1920s, built around a wide, dish-shaped alabaster piece with dramatic black and grey veining running through the pale stone. The alabaster is carved into a shallow, rounded bowl form, curving gently from a narrow underside up to a broad rim, so that light passes through the translucent stone and brings out its natural markings. The piece is suspended by three lengths of braided cord in an elegant warm tone, each finished with decorative knotwork and secured to the alabaster through polished brass hooks, with an alabaster finial at the top covering the point where the cords meet the ceiling. The fixture holds a single light source and has been wired for use in the United States, so it is ready to install. Its wide, low profile and diffused glow suit a dining room, a stairwell, an entry hall, or any space calling for soft ambient light rather than a direct overhead light. The combination of warm cord, brass hardware, and veined stone gives the piece a tactile, timeless, sculptural presence that has kept this style of alabaster fixture popular with collectors of 1920s lighting. Height 26.4 in (67 cm), Diameter 16.1 in (41 cm)
