The Art of Natural Spanish Stone vs. Acrylic Replicas

Because genuine Spanish alabaster is a natural mineral, no two ring segments feature identical veining. The translucent stone filters high-power LEDs into a serene, glare-free ambient backlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How high should a ring alabaster pendant light be hung above a dining table?
A: Hang the chandelier so that the lowest edge sits 30 to 36 inches above the surface of your dining table. This aligns the light with the table while ensuring open face-to-face conversations.

Q2: Does the solid alabaster ring require structural ceiling support?
A: Yes, natural Spanish alabaster stone is heavy (ranging from 24 lbs for 17.7" model to 65 lbs for the 39.4" model). Ensure your electrical junction box is structurally rated for heavy fixtures or reinforced with support joists.

Q3: How do you clean the natural alabaster ring?
A: Dust the stone ring regularly with a dry, clean microfiber cloth. Never apply water, damp towels, or liquid chemical solvents as natural alabaster is highly porous.
