Alabaster Bowl Pendant Light – 18 cm Brass Cradle

Want one warm pool of light beside your bed, not a bright room? This bedside pendant light does exactly that. It is an alabaster bowl pendant light: a hand-cut bowl of real alabaster, 18 cm across, hung dome-down, so the stone glows and its light falls where you need it.

The bowl sits in a cradle of two crossed arches on four legs, made in 304-grade stainless steel with an antique brass finish. The legs clamp onto a steel plate that caps the bowl, and a small finial closes the base. The bowl looks carried, not hung.

Real alabaster, cut by hand

Alabaster is stone formed beneath the earth. It belongs to our stone family, with marble and travertine, and it is the gentlest of them in light.

A craftsman in our factory reads each block before he cuts. He decides where the bowl will be thick, where it will thin towards the rim, and which veins to leave alone. Then he hollows and polishes it by hand.

So no two bowls are alike. The veins run differently. The colour shifts. The edges darken where the stone is denser. One block of stone. One light. Never repeated.

Switch it on and the stone glows from inside. Because the wall is thicker at the base and thinner at the rim, the glow is brightest around the top edge and softens towards the bottom. That gradient is the stone’s own, and it differs a little on every piece.

Where an alabaster bowl pendant light works best

At 18 cm wide this is a single-point light, not a room light. Hang it where you want one warm spot.

• Beside a bed: one each side, 75 to 90 cm above the mattress. It frees both nightstands and lights your book, not your partner’s eyes.
• Over a kitchen island or breakfast counter: two or three in a row, 75 to 80 cm above the worktop, about 70 cm apart.
• In an entry or on a landing: a single one, dropped low enough to be seen as you come up the stairs.
• Over a two or four seater dining table: centred about 80 cm above the tabletop.
• In a living room: beside a sofa or a reading chair, against a dark plaster or lime-washed wall.

Unlit, it reads as a pale cream bowl in a dark antique brass frame. It sits well against plaster, lime wash, panelling and wood, and it does not need a dark wall to look like something.

Light, LED and fitting

The bowl hangs dome-down, capped on top by a steel plate. All the light passes through the stone.

You see the alabaster glow softly, and the curve of the bowl sends that warm light down onto the surface below, about a metre across at bedside height. It is a light you can read by, not only look at.

The LED is built in at 12W, 3000K warm white. No bulb to buy, no holder showing through the stone. The LED module carries a 1-year warranty on orders from 4 October 2026 (Legal Policies 4.1B). It is not dimmable; it gives a fixed warm light, close to a filament bulb.

The cord drops 760 mm (30 in) from a 100 mm round canopy, and your electrician can shorten it at installation. The cradle, plate, finial and canopy are 304-grade stainless steel in an antique brass finish, with a lifetime warranty against rusting on orders from 4 October 2026 (Legal Policies 4.1A). The antique finish darkens gradually with handling rather than staying showroom-bright.

It runs on 220–240 V and is rated IP65, as every alabaster light with a built-in LED is.
