Celebrate 60 Years of LAVA® Lamps on National Lava Lamp Day!

National Lava Lamp Day: A 60-Year Celebration of LAVA®



On April 5th, enthusiasts around the world will turn up the glow in honor of National Lava Lamp Day, a momentous occasion that marks the 60th anniversary of the beloved LAVA® brand. Since its inception, LAVA® has been a symbol of creativity and self-expression, captivating hearts with its enchanting, ever-changing patterns.

A Legacy of Light



The journey of the Lava Lamp began with its inventor, Edward Craven Walker, whose vision led to the launch of the LAVA® motion lamp brand in 1965. These iconic lamps are not just mere decorations; they embody a unique mechanical magic, where wax moves in a captivating dance, resembling lava in a volcano. This motion is facilitated by the heat generated from the lamp, creating an ambient glow that sets the mood in any space.

Over the decades, LAVA® has expanded its range, introducing an array of colors, styles, and sizes, all while maintaining the essence that has made it a household name. Today, the Lava Lamp is a staple in homes, dorm rooms, and studios, providing a sense of relaxation and visual delight.
