The story
On Thursday mornings at the flower market in Florence, growers wrap long-stemmed flowers in brown paper and hand them to passers-by. Not a bouquet, just one stem.
Stelo, the Italian word for a flower’s stem, is that single flower, made to last. A tulip-shaped bloom carved from natural white alabaster, with softly ribbed petals and a scalloped rim, opens on a stem of cast brass. The stem is knotted like a real branch, with veined leaves reaching out on either side, and rises from a round backplate embossed with a small rosette. Switch it on and the stone bloom glows warm from within, revealing its own cloud-like veining.
In gold or antique bronze, it suits French country, vintage, cottage, botanical, Art Nouveau and quiet-luxury interiors.

Details
Better together
A single flower is lovely; two either side of a bed or mirror make a bouquet. Two together come at a better price than buying them separately.
A dimmable version or chosen veining are available on request. Looking for a matching ceiling light? See our Bocciolo alabaster bud chandelier.
Each bloom is carved from natural white alabaster, so its veining and subtle variations in colour are unique. When you buy a pair, the two flowers will be similar but never identical, just like real ones. Want a particular look? Just contact us.
Questions, answered
Ø 8.3″ × H 24.4″ (Ø 21 × H 62 cm): a slender, tall sconce that suits bedsides, mirrors and hallways.
Gold is bright and romantic, and glows alongside the stone on pale walls. Antique bronze is darker and more vintage, and looks beautiful on warm or deep-coloured walls.
Wall sconces look their best in pairs, either side of a bed, a mirror or a fireplace. Select the option marked (*2) to get two at a better price than buying them separately.
Beside a bed, about 59–65″ (150–165 cm) from the floor to the bloom; beside a mirror, about 63–67″ (160–170 cm); along a hallway, about 65–71″ (165–180 cm).
Yes. Each bloom is carved from a single piece of natural white alabaster, so its veining and colour are unique. The stem, leaves and backplate are brass.
One G9 bulb, up to 40 W. A warm white G9 LED bulb (2700–3000K) gives the softest glow through the stone and stays cool.
The standard Stelo is on/off only, and a dimmable bulb alone will not change that. A dimmable version is available on request: please contact us before ordering.
It mounts to a standard wall junction box. We recommend installation by a qualified electrician, following local electrical codes. It is rated IP20, for dry indoor locations only.
Switch off and let it cool. Dust the stone and the brass with a soft, dry cloth or brush. Avoid water and chemical cleaners: alabaster is porous, and harsh cleaners can mark the finish.
Each sconce is prepared at our factory in 5–10 days, then dispatched to you. You will see the delivery estimate for your country at checkout.

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

Our product
Alabaster Cylindrical Chain Chandelier
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.
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.
THE ART OF ALABASTER
The natural texture of alabaster brings a warm, mineral quality to the space. (Please contact us if you require a specific texture.)
A pure white texture reminiscent of fresh snow—warm, smooth, and refined.
Deep, inky patterns flow across a white base.
A dynamic pattern resembling a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky.
Fine, intricate cracks evoking the aesthetic beauty of a sheet of ice at the moment it shatters.
A pattern as light and airy as falling snowflakes, with every single flake unique.
