I’ve had a beautiful salt lamp from Solay for about 2 years now. I love it. The pink salt comes from the foothills of Himalayan Mountains and apart from just being pretty to look at – they’re good for your health too. Salt crystal lamps generate healthy negative ions that cleanse the air. That feeling in the air after a good rain is from negative ions which is what these lamps emit.
The crystal is hand excavated into various sizes and drilled inside to accommodate a light source. When lit by a small, energy efficient light bulb of 15 watt or less, crystal salt emits an electrical charge, enriching our environments with health promoting negative ions. Negative ions help purify the air of allergens, dust, smoke, bacteria and more. These natural qualities make them an excellent beautiful light source, natural air purifier and can help people with various health conditions including asthma, allergies and other respiratory ailments. They can be used in every room, safely and should be left on as much as possible.
