Description
All lamps come with their bulbs! The stainless steel base is leather-backed to avoid scratches on furniture. The wide diameter of the base plate provides greater stability to the lamp.

Although there are a few other places in the world where the semi-precious stone Onyx exist, we found our collection in Mexico.

A Bit Of Information On The Semi-Precious Stone Onyx.
While it is often thought of as the black gemstone capable of transforming negative energy in positive energy, onyx is in fact a multicolor stone resulting from the metamorphism of limestone rich in Magnesium and Calcium, a process that takes thousands of years. During these years, climate change, natural disasters and wildlife have contributed to the various colors of each layer of sediments. In its primary stage, the rock does not reveal its beauty. However, once it is cut, carved, shaped and polished, the outcome is breathtaking. There is simply no designer like Mother Earth herself. We have been very grateful to visit two workshops where the stones are sliced, cut, carved, or otherwise shaped into their final forms. Watching these artisans covered in thick layers of dust, handling these blocks of stone was truly fascinating.

A Word About the Onyx Lamps
An onyx lamp is intrinsically beautiful. But when the light comes on, words cannot describe the magic. Pictures cannot capture its beauty. Our business is known primarily for selling the entire collection of Serge Mouille lighting in the USA. In our journey to find another exciting lighting product, we could not have found lamps that are more contrasting to the Mouille lamps. The onyx lamp is translucent and colorful, heavy, centered and stable, the perfect ambient lamp. The Mouille lamp on the other hand is elongated, thin, elegant, either black or white, weighs less than a feather and diffuses a bright functional light. Yet, they are both organic, eye-catching, gorgeous, and timeless. In fact, they complement each other very well.

This is an all Onyx cylindar shaped ambient table lamp, with a high and surprising contrast in luminosity. When lit, the light accentuates the differences in the translucency of the stone. It ranges from the highly translucent yellow and light brown to the darker brown and red shades. The lighter the color, the more translucent the stone.

Come see our wide selection of onyx lamps in all colors, shapes and sizes. Each lamp is unique, pairs of lamps mean that they were made from the same slab. Grab yours. If you are not 100% satisfied with your lamp, return it. We are confident that the moment you discover the warmth and glow of the Onyx lamp, you will be in love.
