Designer Floor Lamp – Stacked Alabaster Column, Built-in Warm LED, 152 cm

Four blocks of real alabaster, stacked on a slim brass-finish column, each one glowing warm from within. This designer floor lamp stands 152 cm (60″) tall. Two diamond-cut stones and two cubes take turns up the square stem, so the light changes shape as it climbs. Switch it on with your foot and the whole column lights up like a row of lanterns carved from stone.

Real alabaster, cut into diamonds and cubes by hand

Alabaster is a soft, translucent stone formed in the earth over thousands of years. Light passes through it, so when the lamp is on, every grey vein inside the stone shows like a fine pencil line.

In our Greater Noida factory, a craftsman cuts each block from natural stone. The diamonds are faceted to a point at the top and bottom; the cubes are squared and polished smooth. He hollows every block so the light can sit inside it. Because it is natural stone, no two lamps carry the same veining.

The column and the 30 × 20 cm base are made from 304-grade stainless steel with a brushed brass finish. Steel this good never rusts, and the heavy base keeps the tall lamp steady.

Where this sculptural floor lamp works best

• In the bedroom. Beside a reading chair or in the corner by the bed, it gives a soft, warm glow for the evening without a bright bulb in your eyes.
• In the living room. Next to a sofa, an armchair or a sideboard, it turns an empty corner into a piece of sculpture. See our living room floor lamps.
• In hotel lobbies, lounges and showrooms. A pair either side of a doorway or a console makes a quiet, grand entrance.

It suits warm-minimal, modern classic and Japandi rooms: plaster or limewash walls, bouclé, linen, oak and travertine. It gives a gentle mood glow, so pair it with a ceiling light or a reading lamp where you need bright light to work.
