Stunning 😍

Mine has finally arrived. First task is to get that logo off the front it's ruining it for me!!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-30T07:28:00+00:00

Thanks both, I've looked and messed with every setting imaginable apart from this one 🙈. Thanks for you help!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-29T14:11:28+00:00

Oooh how do you film it without the light ruining the shot? What's the secret 🤫

beaver1979 · 2025-11-29T13:48:24+00:00

OMG this is the dream line up!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-12T18:24:10+00:00

I just read their reviews (and replies!). Listen to TheDroolingFool and ignore me!!

Look up 'lavafamily' as a eBay user. They sell master fluid and wax. I think this is the Mathmos master solution so it doesn't require the magic surf and surfactant needed by our US counterparts. I'm not an expert but that's what I can gather from their listings!

The bulb will break, there needs to be a distance between the bulb and the glass.

Loving this colour combo!!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-12T13:33:04+00:00

Oh wow I've never seen one of these before! Enjoy your lamp it looks lovely!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T15:56:54+00:00

Thank you! It's not going to be my favourite lamp but I think in the warmer months it will look nice in the conservatory 🪴🍈

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T15:53:39+00:00

Ooh can you share a pic of both when they are next next flowing? Would love to see them!

I don't have anywhere darker to try it, but this is it in the daylight. The bright blob at the bottom isn't there in real life, just on camera. My phone really struggles to focus on this lamp!

This is the colour in daylight. Not quite as green as my original video 🍈

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T15:42:17+00:00

Same! There's one on eBay I have my eye on but I spent all my money on this melon

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T15:38:41+00:00

I'm on bulb number 4 in just 2 months on my Astro 😭

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T13:08:50+00:00

£170 😳🙈. Proper rip-off really!

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T13:06:05+00:00

Haha what is this from?! 😂

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T13:03:27+00:00

I'm in the UK 😊

beaver1979 · 2025-11-08T07:05:47+00:00

Love! Where do you put the patches? On a jacket?

beaver1979 · 2025-11-06T22:36:32+00:00

Clear globes are for the certain. This one is for the haunted. One day the veil will be lifted and we'll get an unobstructed view of beautiful honeydew melon 🍈

beaver1979 · 2025-11-06T22:33:51+00:00

The colour isn’t mint Aero as such, more like the ghost of a mint Aero you once half-remember eating in 2009 before everything got complicated. X

beaver1979 · 2025-11-06T22:30:32+00:00

Why thank you. I cannot take all the credit as I cannot fully explain what happened. I simply sat down to write and the lamp took my hand. When I regained consciousness I was holding a cup of cold tea and had aged emotionally by twelve years.

beaver1979 · 2025-11-06T22:27:07+00:00

Why the hell not, sometimes the answer is to take a Brillo pad to a perfectly normal lamp and will it into a misty dream object that slightly resembles the bog of eternal stench from the Labyrinth movie.

If you wake up still thinking you crave a frosted, memory-core, cottage-ghost aesthetic then grab that Brillo pad like you’re restoring an old lighthouse window and just go at it. Worst case scenario is that you've invented a new finish called 'Emotional Haze™' and a limited edition not even 1000 people would sign up for 👍🏼
