Sizing Questions

What if I want to light two rooms?

Choose lamp placement based on the surface available and the decorative effect you want in each space.

Does a bigger lamp mean a brighter light?

Lamp size changes the amount of visible salt surface, while brightness also depends on the bulb and dimmer setting. Use the product specifications and your preferred visual scale when choosing.

Can I use a small lamp in a large room?

Yes. A smaller lamp can still work as decorative accent lighting in a larger room; choose the size based on the surface and visual presence you prefer.
