Himalayan salt lamps purify air through the power of hygroscopy, meaning that they attract water molecules from the surrounding environment then absorb those molecules – as well as any foreign particles they may be carrying – into the salt crystal.

Himalayan Salt – also known as ‘Halite’ is a soft edible crystal mineral. Himalayan mineral salt is unique in that the crystals form perfect geometric patterns. Its crystal hues range from white, to a variety of pink, orange and dark reds to almost black/purple.

Himalayan crystal mineral salt is an ancient prehistoric ocean trapped in the Himalayan Mountain ranges, which formed over 200 million years ago. Known for centuries for its wide range of healing and nutritional properties, Himalayan Salt has been long considered an extremely valuable gift from nature.
