Alabaster Table Lamp Decorated in Relief with One Light, 1950s

About the Item

Single-light table lamp in alabaster, decorated in relief, made in the 1950s Ø 48 cm h 24 cm Alabaster is a mineral or rock commonly used to carve decorative objects and sculptures. It is a soft and easily workable stone, typically white or light in color, with translucent properties that allow light to pass through it. Alabaster has been used in art and architecture for centuries, prized for its soft texture and ability to be carved into intricate designs. Alabaster can be found in various parts of the world, with notable deposits in countries such as Italy, Egypt, Spain and Mexico. The stone has been used in ancient civilizations for ornamental and religious purposes, with objects carved from alabaster dating back to ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. In modern times, alabaster continues to be used in art and design for its beauty and versatility. Carved alabaster sculptures, vases, lamps and other decorative objects are popular choices for interior decor, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. Due to its softness, alabaster can be easily shaped and polished to create intricate patterns and designs, making it a favorite material for artists and craftsmen.

  • Table Lamp in Blue Murano Glass and Golden Stem by Nason from the 80s
    By Carlo Nason
    Located in Milano, MI
    Murano glass table lamp by Nason, made in the 1980s. The lamp is composed of a pastel blue glass hat, a golden glass stem and an opaque white glass base. Ø cm 17 h cm 31 Carlo Nason, born in Murano in 1935 from one of the oldest families of glassmakers on the island, he was a great master glassmaker. He grows up frequenting the glass masters who work in the family furnace, appropriating the most refined techniques of glass art, demonstrating an innovative and planning aptitude which he employed in the field of design, but referring back to tradition. In 1925 the Nason Moretti company was founded by the nasone brothers, specialized in the production of furnishing accessories and tableware, where the mastery of the most refined Murano techniques is integrated with a modern vision and careful chromatic research. In 1955 Umberto Nason created an innovative project of two-coloured bowls and glasses which earned him the Compasso d'oro award. In the 60s with the second generation of the family there is a great development of the company which still maintains the characteristic vocation for experimentation. In the 1980s, he looked at lighting with postmodern reinterpretations of designed lights, with the Carlo Moretti Studio line and the series of collector's goblets and tumblers. Since the 1990s, the activity has focused on new collections conceived in a modern and design-oriented key. Carlo Moretti of Venice, founded by Carlo in 1958 in Murano, passed under new ownership in 2013, but is still today an important company for its constant relationship with design. The company is known for the beauty and elegance of Murano glass, reaching not only the tables of the most important families, but also the modern tables of today. Worked with ancient and secret techniques, Nason Moretti glass...
