AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid sculptural table lamp made entirely of natural white alabaster.

The design consists of 10 solid alabaster square slabs, stacked and rotated in an offset arrangement to form an architectural tower. A striking model, inspired by Brutalist / minimalist design and highly sought after in contemporary design.

Its main feature is the translucency of the stone: when switched on, the lamp reveals all the material’s unique natural veining, with tones ranging from bright white to honey, and grey with natural brown inclusions. Each piece is unique.

The light it emits is warm, diffused and atmospheric, ideal as a bedside lamp, ambient lighting for a living room, or a sculptural furnishing object even when switched off.

- *Material:* Solid natural alabaster (not resin, not alabastrite)
- *Period:* Contemporary design, handcrafted in the 2000s
- *Dimensions:* Height 23-cm, base 14 x 14 cm
- *Weight:* approx. 3 kg
- *Electrical system:* Internal E14 lamp holder, white cord with sliding switch, standard EU plug. In perfect working order.
- *Provenance:* Private collection, Lombardy

This type of lamp, often sold as a “Stacked Alabaster Lamp,” is highly sought after

*CONDITION:*

Excellent condition. No chips, cracks or missing pieces. Alabaster is clean and polished. Electrical system has been checked and is in working order. Minor irregularities and natural inclusions in the stone should be considered characteristics of the material, not defects. Please examine the photos carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.

*SHIPPING:*

Shipping with reinforced professional packaging and insurance due to the weight and fragility.
