What Alabaster Lighting Is and How To Specify It

What Alabaster Lighting Is Made Of

Alabaster lighting from Jedaz uses natural stone in the shade component. The structure includes metal, brass, steel or marble for the base, wall plate or frame. The alabaster shade is not a synthetic material but a naturally occurring stone, so variation in colour and texture is expected across items.

How Alabaster Is Used in Lighting Design

The alabaster shade is shaped to fit the fixture's form, whether as a wall sconce, pendant or ceiling fitting. It is mounted on a metal or stone base with a metal wall plate. The light source is integrated into the structure, using G9 LED, SMD LED or a combination of both.

Finish Options for Alabaster Fittings

Most alabaster fittings offer multiple finish options on the metal components. These include gold, brass, antique brass, brushed brass, chrome and black. The finish is applied to the metal parts only, not to the alabaster shade.

Size Range of Alabaster Lighting

Alabaster fittings vary in size from an 80 mm wide wall sconce to a 1000 mm wide pendant. The size is determined by the fixture's intended placement and light output. Custom sizes are available on most items.

What to Know Before Approving a Drawing

Alabaster is a natural stone, so each shade will show variation in colour and texture. This is not a defect. When approving a drawing, confirm that the variation is acceptable for the project. The finish on the metal parts must be specified, as it is not included in the base model.
