Enjoy

Its a white glass dish placed on a black metal base, inside the dish is a small light bulb with a metal cage and you cover the bulb with various sizes of rock crystals and when it's lit the light glows the through the crystal, I love mine. its in the fireplace gives the illusion of warmth.

silly question proberly what is it ?

Not quite what they are (well, not the ones we sell) http://www.thenaturalworld.com/NaturalWorldSite/product/1615132.htm
They are a lamp base (low wattage bulb) and the lamp 'shade' so to speak is made of natural rock salt which apparently absorbs impurities from the air so it is a wellbeing product, they also look very warm and cosy as posted above. Ours sell at £28 (large size) so if the above link is for a genuine rock salt lamp, go for it!

Don't put them in the dishwasher as a friend did, they shrink!!!!!!! Hard to believe but they really did.

ethansmum

Why would you put it in the dishwasher anyway?

I think that a lot of the salt gets washed off the bulk in the dishwasher rather than the whole thing shrinking! :-) It is advised not to get the lamp wet...

Can anyone find a review of these things? Are they just a gimmick? I mean a piece of rock salt is very cheap, and then it's just a lamp in it, why are other places trying to sell them for £28 unless they are a gimmick?
