Marais Plaster Dome

A sculptural ceiling light inspired by the ateliers of Paris.

Product Description

There’s a certain kind of light you only find in old European apartments—where the ceilings stretch tall, the moldings are hand-carved, and illumination feels woven into the architecture. The Marais Plaster Dome captures that feeling with a modern sensibility—bringing sculptural softness and quiet elegance to ceilings that deserve more than function.

A tribute to 1930s French design, this semi-flush mount combines artisan texture with thoughtful proportion. Its hand-applied plaster-like finish evokes the tactile depth of chalky stone, lending an almost carved quality to the piece. The dome’s low-slung form diffuses light beautifully—creating an inviting atmosphere wherever it's placed.

At 16 inches wide and suspended with a delicate, jewelry-inspired chain, the Marais feels equal parts ceiling fixture and gallery piece—ideal for foyers, hallways, or powder rooms where understated drama is welcome.

Style Advice from Rachel Blindauer

This piece is all about tone and texture. I love using it in pairs down a hallway, or centering it above a sculptural pedestal or round table. It pairs beautifully with limewash walls, travertine, or other matte finishes that allow the form to whisper rather than shout. The chain detail adds that unexpected finishing touch—like a bracelet on a column.
