Astra Studio
Our story
Astra means stars in Latin. The name comes from the chandelier that started it all: seen from below, the glass tubes of our Tube chandelier form a star.
01How it started
A small studio in Oslo
Astra Studio began in Oslo as a small studio with a broad mix of things I loved: vintage finds, furniture, artificial flowers and Italian chandeliers. I have always been drawn to Italian design and to objects with a story, and that was the thread running through everything we sold.
In autumn 2024, we opened our first pop-up store in Oslo.

02Amarante
Flowers with a home of their own
The artificial flowers grew so popular that they deserved a brand of their own. Today they are called Amarante.
If you are looking for the flowers from Astra Studio, you will find them at amarantestudio.com.
03Back to the chandeliers
One thing kept standing out
Along the way, it was always the chandeliers people stopped for. So we chose to give them our full attention.
Every glass is made and shaped by hand by Italian glassmakers near Venice, in the Murano glassmaking tradition, and every chandelier is made to order for the home it is going to.
04Visit us
See the glass in person
Come and see the glass at our showroom at Riddervolds gate 10B in Oslo. Here you can see one of our chandeliers and several wall sconces, and compare a wide selection of glass types and colours side by side.
