Pendant Lamp
The piece
Spanish Alabaster · Solid Brass · Hand-Carved
A vertical alabaster pendant in the language of quiet contemporary lighting — a cylindrical Spanish alabaster shade hand-carved from a single block, capped with a solid cast brass collar and suspended on a braided fabric cord. The form is reductive: a single arched stone shape, a brass hemisphere, a vertical line of cord. Nothing more.
Quarried in Aragón, Spain, the alabaster diffuses warm light through its translucent grain — each shade carrying unique cloud-like veining no two pieces share. Available as a single pendant or as a multi-light cluster of up to twenty-one heads, the Figure suits kitchen islands, dining tables, stairwells, and double-height entries where a single sculptural drop or a vertical cascade is wanted.

FAQ
How many heads should I order for a kitchen island? +
For an island under 6 ft, 2–3 pendants in a row work well. For 6–8 ft islands, 3–5 heads. Hang the lowest point 30–36″ above the counter and let the cord lengths stagger if you prefer a more sculptural cluster.
Why does each shade look slightly different? +
The alabaster is quarried in Aragón, Spain and hand-carved from a single block. The cloud-like veining, color depth, and translucency are properties of the natural stone — no two shades are identical. This is the character of the material and the reason alabaster pendants have been valued for centuries.
Is the Pergola pendant dimmable? +
Yes, with the right bulb. The fixture takes E26 (US) or E27 (EU) screw-base bulbs. Install dimmable LED bulbs on a TRIAC dimmer and the alabaster glow dims smoothly. We recommend warm-white 2700K–3000K to flatter the stone's natural tone.
Why is the lead time 25 days? +
Each alabaster shade is hand-carved to order from a fresh block of Aragón stone, then matched to its solid brass cap and tested. The 25-day production time covers carving, polishing, brass casting, assembly, and quality check before shipment.
Can I use it in a bathroom? +
The Figure is suitable for general bathroom installations away from direct shower spray — for example over a vanity or in a powder room. Avoid placing it directly above a shower or tub where steam and water spray make sustained contact, as moisture can over time affect the natural stone surface.
Care & delivery
Looking after it
Dust with a soft dry cloth. Stone, plated and painted finishes dislike solvents and abrasives, so keep both away from them; glass takes a lint-free cloth and a little glass cleaner. Solid brass is left unlacquered on most pieces and will warm and darken with handling, which is the material behaving as it should rather than a fault. Switch a fixture off and let it cool before cleaning it.
Who makes it
This piece is manufactured for Elio Marchetti by Radilum, our production partner for the collection.
We are a lighting house rather than a factory. We select the pieces, specify the finishes and the stone, and hold the relationship with the maker, and we would rather tell you that plainly than leave it unsaid. Questions about the manufacture of a specific fixture are welcome and we will answer them.
Delivery
Allow 28 to 43 business days from order to arrival, roughly six to nine weeks. Most of the collection is made to order, so that time covers the piece being built in the finish and size you chose, checked, packed and shipped. The same window applies wherever you are.
Shipping is free to Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, with no minimum order.
Returns
You have ten days from receiving a piece to have it on its way back to us, under way inside those ten days rather than simply flagged with us on the tenth. Return postage on a change of mind is yours, there is no restocking fee, and the outcome is a refund to your original payment method rather than store credit. Made to order pieces return on the same terms as stock. Contact us before sending anything back.
Damaged or faulty on arrival
Separate from an ordinary return, and a longer window: twenty days from receipt to report it. Tell us before you send anything, keep the packaging until we have answered, and photographs of both the fault and the box help. Where a piece is faulty, damaged in transit or not what you ordered, we cover the return postage.
Installation
Any hardwired fixture should go in with a licensed electrician. Where a piece has particular requirements, a sloped ceiling, a chain that can be shortened, a specific socket, they are listed further up this page.

Alabaster
Lighting cut from alabaster, a translucent stone that glows from within when lit rather than simply reflecting light off its surface.
