LIGHTING, DESIGN AND HIGH ARTISANAL QUALITY
Alabastro Italiano is a brand that stands out for its ability to create unique and fully customizable products in the field of lighting. Our experience in managing and executing large-scale projects and site-specific installations has positioned the company as a point of reference for the most ambitious projects, from the creation of large chandeliers to the complete lighting planning of hotels, villas and residences. Attention to quality and beauty—features that have always identified Italian products abroad—has brought our chandeliers all over the world, from Europe to the United States, as far as India, Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, demonstrating exceptional excellence. Our success is built on the passion, experience and expertise of our founders, Riccardo and Alberto Ongarato, who, after years of experience in their family business specializing in design and lighting, decided to establish the brand Alabastro Italiano. Every project is conceived and designed to give a strong sense of recognizability and uniqueness. The use of precious materials such as alabaster, brass, leather and blown glass, crafted by the skilled hands of our artisans, is combined to create “timeless” objects. Our philosophy is to carry forward the idea of high-quality lighting design, where aesthetic research blends perfectly with functionality and energy efficiency.
From the depths of the earth to the light of the sun, Alabastro Italiano takes these extremes to heart and transcends them into a creative dynamic that emphasizes simplicity and clean lines. Alabastro Italiano has given life to an entirely new project MADE IN ITALY, revolutionizing existing collections into eternal, ever-contemporary lighting fixtures. By designing clean and original lines, integrated with the latest technologies and in constant evolution, Alabastro Italiano has never lost sight of its goal: perfection. The result of this work is an extraordinary collection of alabaster. Alabaster is a material that leaves small traces of magic around itself. It is difficult to identify the exact threshold where the material ends and its reflection begins. Impossible to understand how deep the light sinks into its soft transparency. It changes depending on the angle in which it is placed, according to the point of view. Alabaster is a compact stone, “rare to find,” and it dictates precise rules, requiring a familiarity that only Italian artisans possess. Alabaster needs the hand of man to come to life.
The charm of these stone objects comes from their uniqueness, from the fact that they are born from the hands of those who leave a mark and a memory through their work, and from the way each vein makes every piece one of a kind. Alabastro Italiano collaborates with every client to create a unique project. Starting from advice on the best architectural lighting, it brings its know-how, materials, design and creative inspiration to architects and interior designers.
