Salumens Salt Lamp
The lamps give an attractive glow and are suitable for use as nightlights or for ambient mood lighting.
Molded in the Philippines, salt crystals emit a soft glowing light and are hand-carved. It is believed that heated salt crystals emit negative ions into the air that balance out the positive ions emitted by electronic gadgets.
Similar to the experience of breathing the air around a waterfall, a mountain top, seashore, or after a wild thunderstorm, air feels easier to breathe in. Negative Ions makes the air more fresh resulting to a more oxygen-rich air. There are published articles even saying that negative ions can potentially increase growth rate in certain plants.
Not only do the salt lamps help cleanse the air, it is also ornamental that can destress like the soft flicker of a candle that can be placed in any room or areas where you spend most of the time.
