The finishing touch to any room thanks to its hand-carved detail and colourful rock salt, the Oval Himalayan Salt Lamp offers a welcoming glow. This makes it perfect for your living room or bedroom - put it on an end table next to your bedside table or anywhere in your home where you can enjoy its benefits. The lamps can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. The anti-bacterial nature of the salt means that it does not require any other form of cleaning. Himalayan salt is hygroscopic in nature which means that it will absorb moisture from it's surrounding. It's then usual for it to get damp when that moisture is released. It is possible that when the lamp is received, it will be damp to touch but please be advised that this is completely normal and the moisture will evaporate once the lamp has been lit for a while. These lamps, along with our other Himalayan salt range is imported from Pakistan, where this salt originates. All lamps come with PYGMY 12w bulb and standard 3pin UK plug
