One of a Kind & Small Art Deco Alabaster Pendant Light with Unique Color Pattern
Located in Lisse, NL
Beautifully rounded and amazing color pattern alabaster pendant.
If you are looking for a unique and great quality antique light fixture to grace your living space then this beautifully designed and all-handcrafted alabaster chandelier could be perfect for you. We have seen and sold many alabaster light fixtures and thanks to their true beauty and timeless designs we are certain we will make many more clients happy with them. However, we don't think we will ever again find one with an alabaster shade with such a unique and aesthetically beautiful natural pattern. This really is a one of a kind find and the combination of the timeless alabaster shade, its unique color pattern, the matching shape canopy AND the complementing color rope is an absolute joy to look at. Have you also noticed the three unique and intricately knotted suspension points? They are like the icing on the cake of this work of art (deco) light fixture. Thanks to the metal hook inside the canopy, mounting this light onto your ceiling is child's play. This alabaster pendant has a very warm look and feel and it radiates the kind of light that makes you immediately feel at home. Mind you, this antique light is rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage the world over.

Decorative Lighting: Unique Table Lamps, Floor Lamps, Vintage Sconces and Other Lighting for Sale
A wide range of antique and vintage lighting can be found on 1stDibs — shop Tiffany Studios table lamps, modern chandeliers, understated wall pendants and other decorative lighting and fixtures now.
While we’re indebted to thinkers like Thomas Edison for critically important advancements in lighting and electricity, we’re still finding new ways to customize illumination to fit our personal spaces all these years later.
Today, lighting designers like the self-taught Bec Brittain have used the flexible structure of LEDs to craft glamorous solutions by working with what is typically considered a harsh lighting source. By integrating glass and mirrors, reflection can be used to soften the glow from LEDs and warmly welcome light into any space.
Although contemporary innovators continue to impress, some of the classics can’t be beat.
Just as gazing at the stars allows you to glimpse the universe’s past, vintage chandeliers like those designed by Gino Sarfatti and J. & L. Lobmeyr, for example, put on a similarly stunning show, each with a rich story to tell.
As dazzling as it is, the Arco lamp, on the other hand, prioritizes functionality — it’s wholly mobile, no drilling required. Designed in 1962 by architect-product designers Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the piece takes the traditional form of a streetlamp and creates an elegant, arching floor fixture for at-home use.
There is no shortage of modernist lighting similarly prized by collectors and casual enthusiasts alike — there are Art Deco table lamps created in a universally appreciated style, the Tripod floor lamp by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Greta Magnusson Grossman's sleek and minimalist Grasshopper lamps and, of course, the wealth of mid-century experimental lighting that emerged from Italian artisans at Arredoluce, FLOS and many more are hallmarks in illumination innovation.
With decades of design evolution behind it, home lighting is no longer just practical. Crystalline shaping by designers like Gabriel Scott turns every lighting apparatus into a luxury accessory. A new installation doesn’t merely showcase a space; carefully chosen ceiling lights, table lamps and floor lamps can create a mood, spotlight a favorite piece or highlight your unique personality.
The sparkle that your space has been missing is waiting for you amid the growing collection of antique, vintage and contemporary lighting for sale on 1stDibs.
