The last hour of the day should not be lit like an office.
Most evenings end under a ceiling light still running at full daylight, or beside a lamp that looks good from across the room and is the last thing you would actually touch. You dim what you can and the room still feels switched on.
This one sits low, beside the chair. Turn the dial down until the room is only glowing, put your feet on the dome, and the light is coming off something warm and round instead of down from the ceiling. At a desk it does the same for your hands.
Rest is the word. It is a 2.5 kg block of salt and not a step, so do not stand on it or put your weight through it.
Why this one and not a twenty dollar lamp
- A single block, not a basket of chunksThe light passes through one continuous piece of rock. Baskets of loose chunks cost less to make and throw light through the gaps between the pieces.
- Shaped to be touchedRounded all over and finished so there is no edge anywhere on it. That is a different job from a lamp built only to be looked at across a room.
- The hardware is in the boxA cord with a rotary dimmer dial and a bulb, both included. You screw the bulb in yourself, which takes about a minute and no tools.
- You see the actual stone firstLit and unlit, photographed by us. No renders, and no borrowed supplier art.
No corners, so no hot spots
Corners concentrate light and throw bright edges. A dome has none, so the brightness falls away gradually from the crown down to the base and the lamp reads as one soft mass rather than a lit object with hard lines on it.
It is cut from a single block, so the light crosses unbroken mineral instead of the gaps between loose chunks in a wire basket. That solid mass is also what holds the warmth once the bulb has been on a while, and what makes the whole surface an even temperature rather than hot in one spot.
The same glow from every side
This is the lamp lit and turning, our own footage of the piece. There is no bright edge and no dark patch anywhere on it. That is the whole point of a dome: light leaves a curved surface evenly, so it looks the same from any chair in the room.
Where it actually goes
- Beside the reading chairFloor level, where your feet already are.
- On a deskA warm surface for your hands while you work.
- On the lowest settingTurned right down, it reads as a glow rather than a light.
- As a giftOne solid carved piece on a turned wooden base, with the bulb and dimmer cord in the box.
The same lamp, off and on
On the left it is switched off in daylight. On the right it is the same lamp with the bulb lit. Raw salt is a muted pink; the colour only deepens once there is light behind it. Both of these are our own photographs of the product we ship.
Every dome is cut from different rock, so the veining and the exact shade of yours will not match these photographs precisely. That is worth saying out loud, because it is the thing people are most often disappointed by when they buy salt online.
How big it actually is
About 12.5 cm tall and 15.7 cm across, which is 4.9 by 6.2 inches, on a 2 cm turned wooden base. It weighs 2.5 kg, about 5.5 lb. Salt is dense, so it is noticeably heavier in the hand than it looks in a photograph. This is a lamp for a floor beside a chair, a side table or a desk.

The numbers
Measured off the actual pieces. Salt is cut from natural rock, so treat these as close, not exact.
Why it costs what it costs
Domes shaped for resting hands and feet on are usually sold as wellness equipment, often well past a hundred dollars, carried along by claims about air and health. We make none of those claims. This is a lamp: a solid piece of salt, a warm bulb and a dial to set the level. What it does is glow, and hold a little warmth.

Looking after it
Salt draws moisture out of the air, so keep it somewhere dry and wipe it with a dry cloth, never under a tap. In a humid room it can bead or weep a little: leaving it switched on keeps it dry, and a coaster protects the surface underneath. Nobody tells you that when you buy one, and it is the most common surprise people have with salt.
