Below: Mixing the properties of glitter and lava, Mathmos created Glitter Ball. Glitter Ball is a fusion of a glitter lamp and a lava lamp produced with shiny lava. Glitter Ball lamps use a different formulation than standard lava lamps and tend to produce more ovoid slow moving shapes which are just as beautiful.
