Venus 1 Light Alabaster Floor Lamp - Matte Black

The Venus is a 1.65m floor lamp built around a tapered matte black steel column and a 500mm cylindrical shade made from natural Spanish alabaster. The shade is constructed as a fluted band of vertical alabaster panels separated by narrow ribs, sitting horizontally across the top of the column. An E14 lamp socket inside the shade lights the alabaster from within, so the stone itself becomes the diffuser.

This is a column floor lamp designed as ambient lighting for larger living rooms, lounges, hotel lobbies and wide hallways. The 500mm shade diameter and 1.65m height give the lamp a substantial floor presence, so it suits rooms with at least 2.5m of ceiling height and enough surrounding floor space to read the full silhouette. Position it beside a lounge chair, next to a console, or in a corner where the tapered base can be seen from across the room.

The matte black column is finished in stainless steel with a low-sheen coating that absorbs reflections and reads as a clean architectural form rather than a polished accent. Each alabaster panel in the shade shows different mineral veining and translucency, so the lit surface is never uniform — warmer streaks alternate with cooler pale sections as the light passes through the stone. The contrast between the dark monolithic column and the glowing pale shade is the central design idea, and it pairs well with contemporary, gallery-style and minimalist interiors.

What bulb does the Venus take?

The shade houses an E14 (small Edison screw) lamp socket. Bulbs are sold separately. Most owners pair this lamp with a warm-white LED candle bulb between 4W and 6W at 2700K-3000K, which complements the natural warmth of the alabaster.

How many bulbs does it take?

The Venus is a single-light fitting with one E14 socket inside the alabaster shade. The full glow across the shade comes from one bulb diffusing through the natural stone panels.

What size room does it suit?

At 1.65m tall with a 500mm shade, the Venus is best in larger living rooms, lounges, hotel lobbies and wide hallways with ceilings of 2.5m or higher. It needs enough surrounding floor space for the tapered column and broad shade to be read as a single sculptural form.

How is the alabaster cleaned?

Alabaster is porous and softer than marble. Wipe gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. For more stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the stone and do not use household sprays, polishes or chemical cleaners.
