Rocket Lamp

Lighting

The Rocket Lamp is inspired by the classic lava lamp, a decorative light invented in the 1960s by British entrepreneur Edward Craven Walker. Lava lamps use a simple but mesmerizing principle: colored wax inside a glass container is heated by a bulb at the base, causing it to rise and fall in slow, organic shapes. They became especially popular during the psychedelic design era of the late 1960s and 1970s and are still associated with retro décor, dorm rooms, and creative spaces.

The Rocket Lamp can be purchased from Nook's for 1,500 Bells and can be customized into one of seven color combinations.

If you're looking for maximum quality, you'll want to get an original Mathmos Lava Lamp from the company in the UK started by the founder (which continues to make their version of the lamp in the UK).
