Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite Pendant Light by In-es.artdesign

Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite by In-es.artdesign is a 50 cm Nebulite half moon that glows all over, in white or one of five colors. It is designed by Oçilunam and made to order in Ariccia, just outside Rome.

The Luna collection began in 2003, when In-es.artdesign perfected Nebulite: a resin-and-fiber composite laid up by hand so that every shade carries the uneven, softly glowing surface of the moon. No two pieces read exactly alike, and that is the point.

The Design Story

In-es.artdesign was founded in 2003 by the Italian artist and designer Oçilunam to bring art and design together in light. The studio works with craft-inspired techniques, balancing light and shadow with pure color and contrasting textures, and makes every piece in Italy under strict quality control. The Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite belongs to the Luna collection.

Why You'll Love It

Hung over a dining table, a kitchen island or a stair void, the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite turns the ceiling into a focal point. The light falls softly, without glare, because the shade itself becomes the source.

The surface is never flat or plastic-looking: the hand-laid fibers in the Nebulite give the glow depth and movement, so the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite looks different at dusk, at night and in daylight.

Choose from 6 options in the laprene color menu above; each tile shows the color combination. Screens show color a little differently than real life, and the hand-finished surface varies slightly from piece to piece.

Made for Real Life

We supply the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite with a UL-listed cable for US installation; the bulb is sold separately so you can choose your own color temperature.

Questions We Hear Most

What is the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite made of?

The Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite is made of laprene, steel, Nebulite (fiberglass). Nebulite is In-es.artdesign's own resin-and-fiber composite, finished by hand in Italy, which is why each shade has its own slightly irregular texture.

Does every Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite look exactly the same?

No. Nebulite is laid up by hand, so each Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite has its own grain and slight variations in the surface. That irregularity is what gives it the look of the moon.

Will the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite work with US wiring?

Yes. We order every Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite with a UL-listed cable for US installation. The bulb is not included; use the type shown in the specifications.

What do the add-ons on the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite do?

The RGB LED controller lets the light change color; In-es.artdesign offers it only with a white interior.

How long does the Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite take to arrive?

Each Mezza Luna Mini Nebulite is made to order in Italy and ships in 2 to 4 weeks. Because it is made for you, it is a final sale, so take a moment to check size and finish before you order; we are happy to help.
