Customer Reviews for Egyptian Alabaster Ottoman Lamp

Egyptian Alabaster Ottoman Lamp

This handmade lamp is crafted from a single large piece of stone, shaped in a classic form reflecting the design era of the Ottoman Empire in Egypt when Egyptian Alabaster was highly revered and utilized on a large scale. Its light is a honey color and beautifully celebrates the natural alabaster and its mystical allure of Antiquity. Each piece is fashioned by master craftsmen, using quality stones and time tested artisanal techniques. Due to the handcrafted construction and organic variation in the alabaster itself, each creation is one-of-a-kind, imbued with its own unique colors and textures, milky veins and amber-hued swirls.

Gorgeous addition to my living room!

Model Number: 594566
"I got this lamp as a birthday gift and it is absolutely beautiful. Well-made from a good-sized piece of alabaster. I have a 4-year old so I like that it is sturdy and unlikely to tip over. You can really see the quality of the stone--so lovely with the light coming through."

Returned-not working

"The switch on the lamp cord was obviously cheap and broken, so the lamp didn't work. Also, the lamp was a lot heavier and clunkier than I expected."

Absolutely Stunning

Pros: heavy and stable, gorgeous glow
Model Number: 594566
"I received this lamp as a birthday gift and I love it. .When illuminated, the natural patterns and honey colored glow are just beautiful. I realize that this is hand cut stone (not something mass produced in a mold) and like knowing I have a unique piece of art. The lamp is prominently featured on a table in my entryway"

Depends on the Stone you Get

"Plus - Natural piece of stone
Negative - Some pieces don't look as good as others - The one in the pix looks great, mine did not have the same character and natural cracks/fissures makes it look broken. It will be returned tomorrow.

Thoughtfully Designed

Pros: classical design
Cons: it is made from real stone and can break.
Model Number: Ottoman lamp
"This alabaster Ottoman lamp is a modern take on an old design from the orient, which is best known for exotic stylings in home decor. The alabaster radiates a soft and appealing glow, and gives off an attractive illumination effect that is quite seductive! This lamp brings charm and a romantic feel to a bedroom, family room, or a dressing room, when a soft alluring illumination effect is desired."

I love my Ottoman Lamp!

"This is a beautiful home decor piece. I love the colors! I'm going to put it on my hall table in the foyer. It has an inviting amber hue that is sure to dazzle and impress my guests! Thank you Costco for featuring such an exquisite product at such a reasonable price!"

Dissapointed

Model Number: 594566
"I thought this was going to be an expensive looking accent piece for my living room, however; it looked awful. The stone was quite thick and was not polished. The white swirls were opaque. I took it back immediately."

Stunning

Model Number: 594566
"I opened the box and pulled out an absolutely gorgeous lamp. The alabaster is beautiful without illumination, but when that light goes on it gives off an incredibly warm, inviting and organic glow. It goes perfectly with my contemporary furnishings and looks fabulous in my home. The workmanship is flawless on this lamp, I know these are hand made (just one more reason to LOVE these) as I have bought alabaster pieces from Costco before and have been thrilled. In fact, I have had many admirers purchase these after seeing them displayed all over my home! I really value the individuality of each piece, the different marbling that simply cannot be replicated by man made pieces, and that unbelievable glow....I cannot say enough...."

Exceeded expectations

"I received the lamp in three days and it exceeded my expectations. The natural design in the stone is quite attractive and the amber glow it produces on my wheat colored wall creates a very mellow mood in the room."

Lovely lamp!

"We received this lamp a few days ago. It is beautifully sculpted variegated stone; interesting when not lit, and striking when lighted. Throws multi-colored amber light...lovely."

Poor Quality/Workmanship

"After reading the reviews and image, I decided to make the purchase. Should have listened to the issues with workmanship. The top rim was chipped and cut in a warped manner. The candelabra insert was off center. Returned on the same day received."
