"The plaster lighting of the '80s is back - though the latest iterations to hit the market aren't like anything you might find at your local thrift store. The concrete column silhouettes of decades gone by have given way to more modern, sculptural and organic shapes. From flush mounts, to sconces, to table lamps, I'm seeing this trend everywhere this season."
"Plaster fixtures are quickly becoming a go-to style for anyone looking to add a luxurious, artisanal touch to a space. The resurgence of plaster lighting corresponds with the rise in popularity this fall of natural, cozy textures, warmer, earthier tones, and nature-inspired silhouettes. I first saw the trend hit the market with a floral-inspired plaster lamp from Joseph Altuzarra's recent collaboration with West Elm, and I was hooked."
Plaster lighting of the 1980s has returned with updated, modern, sculptural and organic silhouettes replacing the concrete column shapes of earlier decades. Designs now include flush mounts, sconces, and table lamps across current offerings. Plaster fixtures provide a luxurious, artisanal accent that complements natural, cozy textures and warmer, earthier color palettes. The resurgence aligns with a broader preference for nature-inspired silhouettes this fall. A floral-inspired plaster lamp from Joseph Altuzarra's collaboration with West Elm exemplifies the trend. Retailers such as West Elm, Anthropologie, and Urban Outfitters offer contemporary iterations that reinterpret the classic '80s aesthetic.
