Wood Square Basket

Find the rounded basket lamps a bit too organic? This square wood basket salt lamp answers that. The clean, geometric wooden box plays hard lines against the irregular salt rocks glowing inside, and that contrast is the entire point.

The pieces are loose pink Khewra halite raised in Punjab, Pakistan, set in a precisely hand-crafted square basket with tidy linear joinery. Because the box is built and the rocks picked by hand, the grain of the timber and the shapes of the pieces vary between lamps.

• Precise square wooden box, cleanly joined, filled with loose Khewra salt pieces
• E14 15W bulb, warm amber light of about 1800 to 2200 Kelvin
• Braided flex plus a standard fitted three-pin UK plug
• Box runs about 14 to 18 cm each side and 1.5 to 2.5 kg when full

It suits contemporary living rooms and home offices where most salt lamps would look slightly out of place; the angular basket sits far more naturally beside modern furniture and clean lines. At that footprint it fits a desk, a floating shelf or a low unit in a room of roughly 8 to 12 square metres. A question that comes up is whether the square shape wobbles; it sits flat and stable on its base, so it stays put on a shelf edge.

Because the rocks sit loose, their open faces can pick up a little water in a humid room. That's just salt at work pulling damp inward, so run the lamp to clear it and give the timber a quick dry-cloth once-over as needed, keeping water off the untreated wood.

Want the warm glow without losing your clean lines? Add the square basket to your order.
