1920s Glitter Lava-Lamp bronze

Hello my oozy friends,

Middle May I found an intriguing pair of lava-lamps at a car-boot sale. She had both a lava and a glitter and told me they were from the 1920s and she did not want to let them go for any less then 20 quid each - I got the glitter for 10.

I am very curious does anyone know who made it? And would anybody be interested in making me an offer - I am currently selling it on Ebay.

This is not 1920s it is a hunter lamp. The people made them in the U.K to compete with Crestworth.

Ah, ok! I think it is pretty stunning lamp anyway, it seems as some of the liquid has evaporated can this be replaced?

You should search "hunter glitter lamp" on ebay now +P

Yes, this is a late 1960s "Hunter" lamp, a Crestworth knockoff. The actual product name was the "Sata-Glitterlite", the lava lamp version being the "Sata-Lite." And it's missing some liquid, which is common in these. Don't open it, the stuff inside is NOT user-friendly.
