Crestworth Ceramic Glitterlite. Thank you to Steve Mott.

  • This Crestworth ceramic lava lamp is an intriguing Crestworth piece, that is unlike anything we have seen produced by Crestworth. The photos below were kindly donated by Steve Mott who is very lucky to own this particular piece and a selection of very rare Crestworth items.
  • In particular this design features a Glitterlite bottle with a black cap and base which is made from pottery.
  • Further to this, the base is held via a simply cutout ring that goes into the base of the lamp. These lamps very rarely surface are I would believe this to be either a prototype or perhaps a model that did not reach full mass production. We know this is original thanks to an old Crestworth photo donated by an ex-Crestworth employee.
