About this piece
A rock salt lamp is a chunk of mined salt, hollowed to take a small bulb, resting on a base. This one from Collectible India is sold as Himalayan salt, in pink and orange, on a round wooden base, with an E14 bulb holder and a rocker switch.
The title gives 2 to 3 kg, while the specification table gives 1.9 kg. Each lamp is cut from a different piece of salt, so shape and colour vary. It is used as a soft table lamp or night light.
