The story

Saturno, a small planet of stone

In 1610, in Padua, Galileo turned his new telescope towards Saturn. He could not quite make out its rings, and wrote that the planet seemed to have “ears”.

Saturno, the Italian word for Saturn, brings that small cosmic wonder into your home. A sphere of natural white alabaster hangs beneath a slim black aluminium ring, like a planet within its orbit, topped by a short alabaster cylinder and suspended on a fine 150 cm cord. Switch it on and both stones glow warm from within, revealing soft amber veining, while the dark ring draws a crisp horizontal line through the light.

Compact and graphic, it is made for bedsides, reading corners and entryways, or for rows of two or three over a kitchen island. It suits modern, minimalist, Japandi, mid-century and organic modern interiors.

A single Saturno over a bedside, a reading chair or a small entryway. Hang the globe about 60–75 cm (24–30″) above the nightstand.

Two Saturno pendants over a small island, a breakfast table or either side of a bed. Space them about 60–75 cm (24–30″) apart.

Three in a row over a kitchen island or dining table. Space them about 60–75 cm (24–30″) apart and keep about 30 cm (12″) from each end.

Questions, answered

Before you order

Choosing and placing

Where does the Saturno work best?

Its compact Ø 18 cm (7.1″) ring suits bedsides, reading corners and entryways, and it looks striking in a row of two or three over a kitchen island or dining table.

How far apart should I hang several?

Over an island or table, space them about 60–75 cm (24–30″) apart and keep about 30 cm (12″) from each end of the surface.

Can I adjust the height after installation?

Yes. Release the cord grip at the canopy, slide the cord to the new height and lock it again. Always switch off the power first.

How high should it hang?

The overall drop is up to 150 cm (59.1″). Over a table or island, hang the globe about 75–90 cm (30–36″) above the surface; over a nightstand, about 60–75 cm (24–30″). For tall ceilings, a longer cord is available on request.

Materials and light

Is the stone real alabaster?

Yes. Both the globe and the cylinder are natural white alabaster, not glass or resin, so their veining is unique.

What is the ring made of?

Aluminium, in a black finish: light, slim and crisp, so it frames the glow without adding weight.

Is it dimmable?

The standard Saturno is on/off only. A dimmable version is available on request: please contact us before ordering.

Installation and care

How is it installed?

It hangs from a compact ceiling canopy. We recommend installation by a qualified electrician, following local electrical codes.

How do I clean it?

Switch off and let it cool, then dust the stone and ring with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water and chemical cleaners, as alabaster is a porous natural stone.

The alabaster edit

The Vidir lighting edit

The only shade that glows from inside.

Most shades block light and let it out at the edges. Yet, this stone-textured lampshade manages to achieve exactly that.

01

Translucent properties

Alabaster is translucent. Switch it on and the whole shade lights up from within, veining and all, instead of glowing only where the bulb sits. There is no bright spot to look at, because the light source is the entire surface.

02

Naturally formed

The veining was decided underground, long before anyone cut it. Every shade carries its own pattern and its own faint colour shift — so the piece that arrives is not the piece in the photograph, and that is the point.

03

Durable and long-lasting

Resin and acrylic imitations go amber and brittle within a few years of sitting next to a warm bulb. Stone does not age that way. The shade you unpack is the shade you will have in twenty years.

Designed for better living

Stone Light Fixtures

Natural stone is different from metal or glass. Understanding these points before you buy ensures there won't be any surprises after installation.
01

Light Color Defines the Look

Use warm white (2700K). The stone itself has an off-white, creamy tone; cool light passing through it makes it look grayish and dingy, whereas warm light brings out that honey-like hue seen in the photos.

02

Clean Only with a Dry Cloth

Alabaster is a natural stone that absorbs water and cleaning agents, which can leave permanent stains. Disconnect the power, let the bulb cool down, and then wipe the fixture with a soft, dry cloth—do not use water or spray cleaners.

03

It is heavier than it looks.

The density of the stone is far greater than that of a glass shade of the same size; ensure the ceiling's load-bearing capacity is sufficient for safety.

Natural Alabaster Lamps

Alabaster is translucent, so the light travels through the stone rather than escaping at the edges — the whole shade glows, veining and all. Every piece carries a pattern that was decided underground, which is why no two are alike.

Industrially Replicated Surface

Limitations of resin

Resin is cast in moulds, so the "veining" repeats from one shade to the next and the light passes through evenly with no depth to it. It also ages differently: sitting close to a warm bulb, resin tends to amber and grow brittle within a few years.
