Suspended from a slim brass stem and illuminated from within by a G9 bulb, the stone narrows toward the top where it meets the brass, then expands into a softly rounded base. This balanced silhouette gives the pendant a sculptural presence while allowing the natural alabaster to diffuse a warm, comfortable glow. Available in three sizes from 15 to 23 cm wide, the smaller version works beautifully beside a bed or in a hallway, while the largest size provides suitable illumination for an entryway, stair void, or small dining area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSingle-Piece Carved Stone\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne block of alabaster shaped into the full teardrop — no seams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eNatural Alabaster\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTranslucent stone — veins glow when the bulb is on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSlim Brass Stem\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSingle rod suspension in raw brass, paired with matching canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eG9 Bulbs, Swappable\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 socket on small and medium sizes, 3 sockets on large.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e3 Sizes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e15 \/ 18 \/ 23 cm wide — bedside through entry scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAC 110–240V\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eHardwired, works on North America and EU mains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eNatural Alabaster — Each Drop Is Unique\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Tova is carved from a single block of alabaster per piece, not assembled from sections. Because alabaster is a quarried stone, the vein pattern, vein density, and underlying tone (whiter or more honey-yellow) vary from block to block. Your drop will not match the photo exactly. When the bulb is on, the veins read brightest because they are where the stone is thinnest — this is the stone, not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eG9 Bulbs · Bulb Not Included\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmall and medium sizes take 1 G9 bulb each; the large size takes 3 G9 bulbs distributed inside the wider stone.

We recommend a warm-white G9 LED bulb (2700–3000K) to bring out the honey tones in the alabaster veins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizes \u0026amp; Bulb Count\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"_resizableImage_1wqvo_111\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/8761\/4251\/files\/7c676058-b5bf-408a-8ccd-92a6b4ba2c20.png?v=1780822742\" alt=\"Tova Teardrop Alabaster Pendant Lamp\" width=\"96\" height=\"83\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSizeDiameter × HeightG9 SocketsBest ForSmall15 × 28 cm (5.9″ × 11.0″)1 bulbBedside, narrow nook, vanityMedium18 × 34 cm (7.1″ × 13.4″)1 bulbHallway, stair landing, single focal pendantLarge23 × 40 cm (9.1″ × 15.7″)3 bulbsEntry, stair void, small dining table\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eReading the Sizes\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiameter is measured at the widest point of the drop.

The brass collar at the top covers where the bulb wiring enters the stone; below that, the entire teardrop is one piece. This is why the large size, in particular, has real weight: it's solid stone shaped down to a hollow interior where the bulbs sit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWill my Tova look exactly like the photo?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Alabaster is a quarried stone — every block has its own pattern of veining and tone. The photo shows one representative drop; yours will have a different vein pattern, a different vein density, and may sit slightly whiter or warmer than the photo. When the bulb is on, the veins glow brightest because they're where the stone is thinnest. This variation is normal alabaster behavior, not damage or a manufacturing flaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy does the large size have three bulbs and the others one?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interior volume of the large drop (23 × 40 cm) is more than twice that of the medium. A single G9 bulb at the top would leave the lower half of the stone noticeably dim. Three sockets distributed inside the cavity light the full height of the drop evenly, top to bottom, and roughly triple the lumen output. If the Tova is the primary light in the room, choose the large.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCan I cluster Tovas in different sizes?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes — mixed-size clusters work well with this form. A common arrangement is two smalls and one medium hung at staggered heights over a stair void, or three larges in a row over a long dining table. Each pendant ships with its own canopy and stem. For a cluster on a single canopy with adjustable stem lengths, contact us before ordering and we can quote the multi-pendant build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCan I use a dimmer with this light?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, with the right combination. The Tova dims when paired with two things together: a dimmable G9 LED bulb (look for \"dimmable\" on the bulb packaging — many G9 LEDs are not dimmable) and a Triac dimmer wall switch. Non-dimmable LEDs will flicker or stay at full brightness on a dimmer, regardless of the fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs the Tova certified for North America and Europe?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. It holds certifications compatible with North America, Saudi Arabia, Europe, and Australia and operates on AC 110–240V worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c!-- GEO lighting keywords --\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 18px; font-weight: 400; border-bottom: 1px solid var(--mds-line); padding-bottom: 8px; margin: 28px 0 14px 0;\"\u003eLighting \u0026amp; Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp style=\"font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: var(--mds-sub); margin: 0 0 12px 0;\"\u003eA pendant light delivering task and ambient lighting — ideal for kitchen island, dining table, entryway, bedroom, foyer.
