More than lighting, the Porada Astra Chandelier is a suspended composition of wood and glass designed to bring architectural presence to your interior.
Astra Chandelier Reimagines Classic Light
The Porada Astra Chandelier by David Dolcini reinterprets the classic chandelier through organic design and geometry. Its Canaletta walnut and opal glass balance creates a distinctive centrepiece for contemporary interiors.
Balance Between Structure And Soft Light
Astra Chandelier explores gravity and balance through layered cross pieces and suspended diffusers. The linear structure contrasts with rounded glass forms, creating a lighter visual effect while spreading illumination.
Walnut Warmth Meets Opal Glow
The Astra chandelier combines an organic crossbar in Canaletta walnut with matt black silicone rubber cables and shiny white opal glass diffusers. Walnut adds warmth, while opal glass softens light for a calm atmosphere.
Flexible Forms Above Every Interior
Designed by David Dolcini, the Porada chandelier offers flexible compositions with two, four or six components across multiple levels. This allows the arrangement to adapt to different ceiling spaces and layouts.
Astra Pairs With Reflective Design
Pair the Astra with the Porada Giove Mirror to connect sculptural forms and design language. The reflective surface complements chandelier’s glass presence.

Solid Canaletta Walnut (Natural, Stained or Lacquered)
Care Instructions:
– Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
– Clean spills immediately using a damp cloth, then dry thoroughly.
– Avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals.
– Keep away from radiators and avoid sudden temperature changes to help prevent potential issues with the wood.
– Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
– Allow the finish to mature naturally, as subtle tonal changes over time are part of the wood’s character.
Why It Matters:
Solid Canaletta walnut is a premium natural material, whether left in its natural tone, stained or lacquered. Consistent, gentle care protects the surface from moisture, heat and UV damage, preserving both the wood’s structural integrity and its rich appearance. Expect subtle changes in hue over time, enhancing its character.
Painted Metal (Matt Black Ceiling Rose/Cap)
Care Instructions:
– Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
– Clean using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water.
– Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots.
– Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, scouring pads or harsh chemicals that may scratch or damage the painted finish.
– Avoid impacts or dragging sharp objects across the surface, as chips or scratches may expose the underlying metal.
– Ensure the fixture is switched off and cool before cleaning.
Why It Matters:
The painted finish protects the metal while providing its decorative appearance. Gentle, routine cleaning helps preserve the colour and finish, preventing unnecessary wear and ensuring the surface remains in excellent condition for years to come.
White Opal Glass Diffuser
Care Instructions:
– Clean with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
– Avoid abrasive cleaners.
– Dry thoroughly to prevent streaks.
– Handle with care when removing the diffuser for cleaning.
– Ensure the glass is completely dry and the fixture is switched off before reassembling.
– Do not apply excessive pressure when cleaning to avoid stress on the glass.
Why It Matters:
Opal glass can show dust, fingerprints and light smudges that affect light diffusion; regular gentle cleaning keeps its soft, even glow and enhances its appearance.
Matt Black Silicone Rubber Cable
Care Instructions:
– Dust or wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
– Avoid contact with solvents, abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
– Do not bend, twist or kink the cable excessively.
– Keep the cable away from heat sources and sharp edges.
– Periodically inspect the cable for signs of wear or damage.
– Never clean the cable while the fixture is connected to the power supply.
Why It Matters:
The cable is a critical electrical component as well as a visible design element. Gentle handling and regular inspection help preserve its protective silicone casing, maintaining both safety and the fixture’s clean aesthetic.
