Not only are salt crystal lamps incredibly beautiful and artistic, they also have tremendous health benefits! How can a pretty lamp help your health, you ask? A salt lamp is a chunk of mined salt that has been hollowed out to allow room for a lightbulb or tiny candle. The light glows through the salt crystal, which can range in the pale to dark orange color spectrum, and emits a soothing glow. Studies have shown that salt crystal lamps increase the negative ion count, creating a balance of ions in the air, which benefits asthma patients, people with chronic lung illnesses and allergy sufferers. They can also improve learning, memory and emotional well being. Hello?! Don’t we all need that?! And, they’re just so cool looking!
Levoit has an incredible selection of salt lamps, all mined in an ecologically responsible manner. We re also very into the Serenity Bowls, a black ceramic bowl filled with 10 large Himalayan salt rocks, each with their own flickering, subtle light. How great would that look on your table? Buy them on amazon.
