Made from beautiful pink Himalayan salt that is mined in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains in Pakistan. The natural health benefits of salt have long been recognised. These lamps have hygroscopic properties and readily absorb moisture out of the air. The natural colour of a salt lamp creates an orange or pinkish glow that can add beauty to any decor. Extracting moisture from the air provides several health benefits; improving air quality and reducing humidity. The lamps gently detoxify, hydrate, and energise, helpful for asthma sufferers and people with allergies. Himalayan salt lamps make a great addition for any space: in your bedroom, at the office, by your computer, next to your television, or anywhere else you want to brighten a space with a beautiful glow. For maximum benefits, we recommend leaving your lamp on as much as possible.
