The charming and delicate Urania wall lamp captures the beauty of the ancient world, steeped in history. Its shade is made from natural alabaster—an extraordinary, marble-like material prized for its rare ability to diffuse light. The resulting glow is soft and gentle, enveloping the space in a sensual, reflective, and soothing atmosphere.

The stone shade is mounted on a solid arm. The wall lamp is available in natural brass, which will gracefully age over time, developing a rich, charismatic patina, as well as in a silvery nickel finish.

Aurum and alabaster—two timeless elements from the past, among the most classic combinations. The warm golden hue pairs beautifully with delicate calcite and later gypsum, materials that inspired artists to craft sculptures for centuries. The Urania sconce evokes this distant yet captivating past, making it perfect for classic interiors as well as those seeking a distinctive, unexpected touch. It is a piece for lovers of serenity, warmth, and 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.
