Rosalia Pink Iridescent Murano Glass Disc Chandelier

I · The finish

What "iridescent" actually means.

Iridescence is not a colour. It's a physical property — the way certain surfaces refract light differently at different angles, producing a shift of colours across the visible spectrum as the viewer moves. The wings of certain butterflies do this. The inside of an abalone shell does this. In hand-blown glass, iridescence is achieved by exposing the glass to metallic vapour while it is still hot from the furnace — a thin coating of tin or titanium bonds to the outer surface, creating an angle-dependent optical effect.

The Rosalia's discs are pink at their core — the colour of the glass itself, coloured with gold chloride during the melt. But their surface is iridescent. Depending on how the light hits them and where you're standing in the room, you'll see hints of green, gold, indigo, and violet moving across the pink. This is a fixture that behaves differently in the morning than at sunset, differently from the seat at the head of the table than from the doorway. It is designed to be looked at more than once.

II · The form

Discs, not spheres. Discs, not petals.

Most Murano chandeliers deploy their glass as spheres, teardrops, or petals — forms designed to be looked at as objects. The Rosalia does something different: each glass element is a flat disc, roughly the size of a small saucer, with a subtle inward curve. Discs are surfaces, not objects. They read as planes of light rather than as decorated volumes.

Arranged in a layered formation around the polished nickel frame, the discs face outward and slightly downward. Light from the interior sockets passes through their pink-and-iridescent surface and spreads across the room as a soft, warm-toned wash rather than concentrated points. The effect is closer to the diffused glow of a paper lantern than to the sparkling reflection of a crystal chandelier — but with pink-shift iridescent character that neither paper nor crystal can produce.

III · A single size

Deliberately compact.

The Rosalia is produced in a single size — 19.7 inches in diameter, 19.7 inches in height. The proportion is deliberate: substantial enough to anchor a small dining table, entry foyer, or dressing room without over-scaling; compact enough to work above a bed, at the centre of a bedroom, or in a girls' room where a larger fixture would overwhelm.

For larger rooms or two-storey foyers, consider our Stella Teardrop or Skylar Cascade instead — the Rosalia is deliberately intimate and will look under-scaled in mansion-scale interiors.

IV · The craft

Considered in every detail.

Bulbs included.

The Rosalia ships with its full set of E12 warm-white LED bulbs. 2700K warm-white is chosen deliberately: it's the temperature at which the pink glass reads as rose rather than magenta, and at which the iridescent shift produces the softest, most romantic colour play. Dimmable-compatible if you swap to dimmable E12 LEDs and pair with a triac wall dimmer — the fixture is at its most enchanting at 30-50% brightness.

Nickel, not gold.

The polished nickel frame is a deliberate design choice — cooler-toned than the polished gold of our other Murano fixtures, it lets the pink discs be the visual event rather than competing with a warm-toned frame. Nickel also softens with age in a way that gold does not, developing character rather than showing plating wear.

Adjustable chain.

Standard 11.8-inch adjustable drop chain. Extendable on request for vaulted bedrooms or higher-than-standard ceilings. Write to service@stuberlighting.com with your ceiling-to-floor and desired hanging height before ordering.

Individual variation.

Each disc is hand-blown and hand-finished — subtle differences in pink intensity, iridescent depth, and surface pattern remain by design. Your Rosalia will be subtly different from photographs and from every other Rosalia produced. This is the material's signature; machine-pressed glass would look identical across every unit, which is not what hand-blown Murano-tradition production produces.
