The shades of the small Urania lamps are made of natural Spanish alabaster – an ore with an astonishing ability to transmit beams of light. The glow thus diffused becomes extremely soft and delicate, creating a uniquely sensual aura in the room.
The chandelier was created with three shades hanging at different heights. The lamp comes in a silver nickel or brass finish, covered in a delicate patina, a symbol of unhurriedly passing time.

The combination of marble-like alabaster and metal glittering in the sunlight refers back to an image of the ancient world in all its glory. Inspired by the ancient rules of harmony, tranquillity and balance, the chandelier is the perfect choice for both strictly classical and modern interiors looking for something a little out of the ordinary. Regardless of their surroundings, all three Uranas are sure to steal the hearts and gazes present in an interior, but – as befits noble goddesses – in return they will gift a priceless sense of comfort and tender nostalgia.

Did you know that…

…alabaster is a compact, translucent, white or slightly coloured mineral that is a fine-grained variety of gypsum? Lampshades made from a single block of stone vary both in colour, which can take on pinkish, slightly beige and often completely white tones, and in texture – some shapes are crossed by dark veins, others remain in a uniform light tone. Each illuminated inside intrigues with a different drawing. The colour of the bulb can accentuate their pure white or give them a very warm honey glow.

Due to the natural properties of alabaster, small more heavily calcified clusters of less transparent grains sometimes appear inside the walls of the lampshade; these are more visible when the lamp is lit, but they are not a defect of the lampshade, merely a natural consequence of the construction of the material from which they are made.
