Incredible discovery I ned to share.

I custom made a 27'' grande using original orange liquid and black lava several years ago using 7 or 8... I cannot remember - 52oz globes I purchased on sale one year. The completed masterpiece always operated beautifully until I unboxed it for Halloween as I do every year as I did this last October.  However, for some unknown reason this year the lamp ignited but after heating up and looking as it should the wax would stop flowing and just stalled at the bottom. I noticed the plug was halfway…See More

"Most reason for glitter degradation is that you left the lamp on far too long and the liquid became hot as in very HOT.  This will cause the chromatic coating to dissapear.  Be mindful of buying replacement glitter.  I purchased two…"

Icon Series Lava Lamps For Sale

I'm considering selling my Icon Series Lava Lamps.  If anyone is interested in purchasing one let me know which one you're looking for and I'll check my inventory. If I have in stock, I will gladly fire the lamp up and send pictures of the lamp. We can then negotiate price. I will insure to double box to protect the lamp when shipping.  I travel a lot for the company I work for so please give me a little extra time to reply.  See More

"When I was a kid I used paint thinner and baby oil and it worked and looked the same if I'm not mistaken. I used a magic marker for the dye.  It never faded and it flowed beautifully.  "

"I love the Dr. Who episode you posted. Thank you.  It's amazing how many shows use lava lamps and glitter lamps in episodes like the Pee Wee herman show.  What a great way to view the lamp when it actually first became available. One…"

The Lamp Caretaker replied to Kelly Flaskerud's discussion Jack O' Bats and Grim Reaper Lava Lamps - $50 Each, Plus Shipping
"Quick advice - whatever you do - do not fire the lamps up where they flow otherwise you will have to drop the title from NIB to used which will decrease the value considerably. Also note - do not take out of the box as soon as you break the original…"

"I would suggest looking on Ebay - Category - Icon Lava Lamp Many times the Icon's come up for less and there are times when you see them listed for 1000.00 like the Diablo, Alien. NIB is going to run a lot of cash and Super Rare. It's hard…"

"Serious good luck finding these lamps for 150.00 plus shipping.  UPS runs 45.00 plus 10-15.00 for insurance to mail the lamp. As of late any one of these lamps on auction sites go for 250.00 - 500.00 depending on the day and the design of the…"
