The story

Bocciolo, buds of stone about to bloom

Every spring in the rose gardens of Florence, thousands of buds hang on the branches, full and tightly closed, as if holding the whole season’s light inside.

Bocciolo, the Italian word for a flower bud, carves that moment in stone. Each shade is carved from a single block of natural white alabaster into the shape of a bud, with ribbed petals running from top to bottom and a softly scalloped edge, as if it were just beginning to open. The buds hang on vintage-style brass link chains, each from its own ceiling canopy, and the chains can be swagged between canopies in soft curves. Switch it on and every bud glows warm from within.

From a single bud to a garden of nine, in matte black or gold, the Bocciolo suits romantic modern, French country, Mediterranean, organic modern and quiet-luxury interiors.

Flexible installation

Your spacing, your heights

Nothing is fixed in a frame. On installation day you decide how far apart the canopies sit and how high each bud hangs.

  1. Space the canopiesEach bud has its own canopy, so place them close for a tight cluster, or far apart in a line or a wide arc.
  2. Set each heightLet more chain hang for a low bud, or take it up into a swag to lift it. Every bud can sit at its own height.
  3. Shape the swagsHook the chain between canopies in deep, dramatic drapes or gentle curves. Over a table, keep the buds about 75–90 cm (30–36″) above the surface.

Questions, answered

Before you order

Choosing your Bocciolo

How many lights do I need?

1 bud for a bedside or reading chair; 2 to 4 for a kitchen island or dining table; 5 to 9 for a large dining room, a stairwell or a double-height hall.

What is the difference between Model A and Model B?

Both have one bud. Model A comes with 150 cm (59.1″) of chain; Model B comes with 200 cm (78.7″), so it can hang lower or swag to a second canopy.

How does the chain length work?

The length listed is the total chain for the whole chandelier. You share it between the drops to each bud and the swags between canopies: a deeper swag means a shorter drop.

Black or gold?

Matte black gives a crisp, modern contrast with the white stone; gold adds warmth and suits romantic and classic rooms.

Stone and light

Is each bud really carved from alabaster?

Yes. Every bud is carved from a single block of natural white alabaster, not resin or glass, so its veining is unique.

Which bulbs should I use?

E12 (US) or E14 (EU/UK), one per bud, up to 40 W each. A warm white LED bulb gives a soft, even glow; an Edison filament bulb gives a deeper, amber, candle-like glow.

Is it dimmable?

The standard Bocciolo is on/off only, and fitting dimmable bulbs will not change that. A dimmable version is available on request: please contact us before ordering.

Installation and care

How is it installed?

Each bud hangs from its own ceiling canopy. Plan the canopy positions before installation; we recommend a qualified electrician, following local electrical codes. Over a table, hang the buds about 75–90 cm (30–36″) above the surface.

How do I clean it?

Switch off and let it cool, then dust the stone with a soft, dry brush to reach between the ribs. Avoid water and chemical cleaners, as alabaster is porous.

How soon will my order ship?

Each chandelier is prepared at our factory in 5–10 days, then dispatched to you. You will see the delivery estimate for your country at checkout.
