Alabastro Italiano
Alabastro Italiano is a celebration of Italian artistry, craftsmanship, and light. Founded by Riccardo and Alberto Ongarato, the brand is dedicated to transforming noble materials into timeless lighting pieces. At the heart of every creation is natural alabaster, a rare and luminous stone prized for its ability to softly diffuse light and reveal unique internal patterns.
Each Alabastro Italiano luminaire is handcrafted in Italy by skilled artisans who deeply understand the delicate nature of alabaster. No two pieces are ever the same. Variations in grain, tone, and translucency give every design its own character, turning each light into a functional work of art. When illuminated, the material comes alive, blurring the boundary between solid form and glowing reflection.
Alabastro Italiano combines alabaster with complementary materials such as brass, leather, and blown glass. These elements are carefully selected and finished to enhance the natural beauty of the stone. The result is lighting that feels warm, tactile, and refined, suitable for both contemporary and classic interiors.
Rooted in Italian tradition yet guided by innovation, Alabastro Italiano embraces modern design and advanced lighting technology. Every piece balances artisanal skill with precise engineering, ensuring excellent performance alongside visual elegance. The brand’s approach allows its luminaires to transcend trends, remaining relevant and desirable over time.
Bespoke design is central to the Alabastro Italiano philosophy. The brand works closely with architects, interior designers, and private clients to create custom lighting solutions tailored to individual spaces. Whether for private residences, hospitality projects, or architectural settings, Alabastro Italiano offers a seamless blend of technical expertise and emotional design.
What defines Alabastro Italiano is its commitment to individuality and perfection. Each luminaire reflects patience, craftsmanship, and respect for material, celebrating the beauty of imperfection found in nature. Choosing Alabastro Italiano means choosing lighting that tells a story, evokes emotion, and brings the timeless elegance of Italian craftsmanship into modern spaces.
