In the 1990s, 32 oz were a big part of Lava's product lineup whilst the Century and the Aristocrat led the way with 52 oz globes, The 32 oz was used in the Midnight, Silver Streak, Princess, Enchantress and Electric Models. It was also used in the Starship and Wizard lineup. The Midnight was extremely popular in the USA, dressed in black and in a wide range of colour combinations, it became a source of fascination for collectors who built Midnight rainbows. The Princess was essentially a white version of the Midnight, Electric featured coloured bases, Silver Streak offered a silver modern finish. The Enchantress was one of the few vintage Lava lamps that Haggerty continued to produce. You remember its sister product the iconic and amazing Enchantress Planter which featured a dish with decorative foliage. All these lamps were filled in the USA, can you say that about your lamp?
