Nature's Gift

Every lamp is a singular piece of the earth

Alabaster is a natural mineral formed over thousands of years of geological sedimentation. The veining, hue, and translucency of every panel is unrepeatable. The flowing cloud patterns and delicate mineral fissures are nature's fingerprints—each lamp is not merely a lighting fixture, but an irreplicable work of natural art that belongs to no one else but you.

A Light That Breathes

Healing warmth, never harsh

What makes alabaster captivating is its exceptional ability to glow without revealing the source. It filters out the glare of raw light and transforms it into a warm, soft, and atmospheric ambiance. In an instant, the cold edges of a room dissolve—replaced by a quiet, healing presence that turns any space into a sanctuary.

The Touch of Craftsmanship

Hand-polished, never machine-made

Each raw stone is studied repeatedly by skilled artisans. From coarse to fine grit, it passes through multiple stages of hand-polishing until the surface reveals a matte, silken sheen. Every imperfection is intentional. Every curve is the trace of a craftsman's hand—evidence that this lamp was made, not manufactured.

An Heirloom of Time

Built to age, not to fade

Natural alabaster possesses remarkable durability and physical stability. It will not yellow under light, nor emit chemical odors. Its life force endures the test of time—unfazed by years. As decades pass, a subtle patina forms on the surface, deepening its character and making the stone feel even more grounded and refined.

Description

The Nimbus Alabaster Flush Mount Ceiling Light resembles a softly glowing cloud sculpted from natural stone, quietly resting on the ceiling. A single round of genuine natural alabaster is shaped into a gently pillowed silhouette, ringed by a slim metal band and finished with a small central finial—quiet, low-profile, and quietly luxurious. Light doesn't blast straight down; it rises through the stone and returns as a soft, glare-free wash that flatters everything beneath it. No harsh downlight, no visible bulb — just calm, ambient warmth from above.

It can be installed flush against the ceiling, making it especially suitable for low-ceilinged spaces that cannot accommodate chandeliers or large ceiling lights—such as bedrooms, hallways, entryways, walk-in closets, and bathrooms—areas often overlooked in lighting design. It transforms the most overlooked plane in the room—the ceiling—into a quiet piece of sculpture.

Natural Alabaster

Naturally Unique Veining

No two pieces of stone are ever the same

Alabaster is a natural stone, so every piece carries its own veining and subtle variation in color. The fixture you receive may therefore differ slightly from the images shown.

An inherent characteristic of real stone — not a quality defect.

Size Guide

Sizing Tip

A simple rule for flush mounts: add the room's length and width in feet — that total, in inches, is roughly the ideal fixture diameter. A 5 × 7 ft entry (≈12″) suits the small size; a 7 × 9 ft bedroom (≈16″) suits the large. For a long hallway, run two or three in a line rather than one oversized fixture. Both sizes share the same 5.9″ depth, so you're really choosing how wide the glow spreads.

The design

A Soft Cloud, Carved in Stone

The gentlest thing in the room, overhead.

This flush mount began with an unlikely idea: could stone feel soft? Instead of a flat disc or a hard geometric shade, the alabaster was carved into a gently pillowed form — a rounded, cloud-like silhouette that seems to rest against the ceiling rather than hang from it. A slim metal ring holds it, and a small finial sits at the center. Nothing more.

That softness is the whole point. Light doesn't shoot down from it; it rises through the stone and comes back warm and diffused, so the room fills with an even, honeyed glow instead of a hard beam. Switched off, the stone reads as a pale sculptural medallion overhead — quiet in daylight. Switched on, it becomes what it always looked like: a small cloud, lit from within.

It was drawn for the rooms most lighting forgets — the low ceilings of bedrooms, hallways, and entries where a chandelier won't fit and a builder-grade fixture feels like an afterthought. Because every shade is real alabaster, no two share the same veining, so even this quietest of pieces is genuinely one of a kind. It asks for nothing, and gives a room a sense of calm.

Why this ceiling light

A Soft Cloud for the Rooms Nothing Else Fits

Pillowed natural stone that hugs the ceiling — built for the low-ceiling spaces a pendant can't solve.

Made for Low Ceilings

At just 5.9″ deep, the flush profile sits close against the ceiling where a pendant or chandelier simply won't fit — bedrooms, hallways, entries, closets, and baths with limited height. It brings a sculptural focal point to the one plane most lighting ignores.

Stone That Looks Soft

Instead of a flat disc, the alabaster is carved into a gently pillowed, cloud-like form — it reads as a pale sculptural medallion overhead even switched off, and turns luminous the moment it's on. Beautiful in daylight, glowing at night.

Three Finishes, Integrated LED

The slim ring and finial come in brass, black, or nickel to suit your palette. The warm-white LED is built in, so there's no bulb to buy or ever replace, and natural stone won't yellow over the years — just hardwire it and switch on.

Questions, Answered

Common Questions

Is the shade real alabaster?

Yes. Every shade is carved from genuine natural alabaster — never resin, glass, or acrylic. Because it's real stone, each shade has its own veining and slight color variation, which is the mark of authenticity, not a defect.

Does it come with a bulb? Do I need to replace it?

The light uses an integrated LED in warm white, so there's no bulb to buy, fit, or ever replace — just hardwire it and switch on. It works with a common wall switch (switch not included). (Please contact us if you require dimming functionality.)

Which size and finish should I choose?

It comes in 11.8″ and 15.7″ diameters, both just 5.9″ deep, and in brass, black, or nickel. The small size suits a hallway, entry, or closet; the large anchors a bedroom or living room. A simple rule: add the room's length and width in feet — that total in inches is a good guide to the ideal diameter.

Will it be too bright or glary?

No. Light rises inside the stone rather than shining straight down, so you get a soft, even glow with no visible hotspot — comfortable to sit under and easy to look at directly.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

It's rated IP20 — damp-rated for dry indoor locations only. It's not waterproof, so while it suits a well-ventilated bathroom, it should not be installed where it may be splashed or exposed to steam, such as directly over a shower or tub.

Will the stone yellow or fade?

Natural alabaster keeps its color for decades and won't yellow under the light or give off odors — unlike acrylic, which yellows and scratches with age.

Is it hard to install?

It's a hardwired flush mount that fixes to a standard US ceiling junction box, sitting close to the ceiling. Natural stone has real weight, so we recommend two people or an electrician for the larger size. Always switch off the power at the breaker first.

How do I clean it?

Wipe the stone gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid water, harsh chemicals, and abrasive pads — alabaster is a porous natural stone.

Built Right, Inside and Out

The beauty of a fixture is easy to photograph. What matters just as much is what sits inside the canopy—the driver, the bracket, the wiring, the hardware in the box. Here is how we build for safety and longevity, so the fixture you order arrives ready to install and made to last.

Install the driver, bracket and other components - Vidirlighting

01 · The Driver

An LED Driver Built to Last

We offer integrated LED drivers in a range of styles—dimmable, constant-current, and color-temperature-adjustable—so the fixture can be matched to how you actually light the room. It runs on 110–240V, works straight out of the box on standard US household power, and is rated for both dry and damp locations, so it fits wherever you'd like to install it.

02 · The Bracket

A Solid Mounting Bracket

Every fixture ships with a sturdy mounting bracket sized to a standard US junction box—so it hangs true and stays secure, year after year. No improvising, no trips to the hardware store.

03 · The Box

Everything You Need, in One Box

Open the carton and it's all there—canopy, mounting plate and bracket, screws and wall anchors, the driver, and a pair of clean cotton gloves for handling the glass. Nothing missing, nothing to source separately. It's the small stuff, packed with care, that makes installation day feel easy.

04 · The Wiring

Clean, Color-Coded Wiring

Clearly labeled leads and a tidy factory harness make professional installation quick and unambiguous. Hand it to your electrician and they'll have it up in minutes—standard L / N / E hardwiring, the way a considered fixture should be.

Order with confidence: what arrives at your door is a fixture built to be lived with—considered on the inside, finished on the outside. Wiring should be carried out by a qualified electrician in line with local code.
