This impressive pair of large and heavy hand-carved alabaster table lamps dates to the 1930s and originates from germany. Sculptural in form and substantial in weight, the lamps beautifully showcase the natural translucency and organic veining of genuine alabaster. Each lamp features a solid, cylindrical alabaster body with a softly irregular, hand-shaped rim that enhances its artisanal character. The stone displays warm cream and honey tones with delicate natural variations, which become especially striking when illuminated. When lit, the alabaster emits a gentle, atmospheric glow that highlights the depth and unique patterning of the material. The lamps rest on carved alabaster bases with integrated switch details, maintaining a cohesive and harmonious design. Their minimalist yet expressive form reflects the understated elegance of early 20th-century german design, balancing craftsmanship with sculptural presence. Highly decorative even when unlit, this pair makes a refined statement on bedside tables, consoles, or sideboards. Their timeless aesthetic and natural materiality allow them to complement both classic and modern interiors. The lights require e14 light bulbs. Works with us and european electrics (110/120/220v).
