A slab of deep space, poured by hand.

★★★★★ 4.9 (89 reviews)

Two astronauts drifting in a nebula that sits inside the resin rather than printed on it. Lit from below by the walnut base. No two are the same.

  • Hand-poured epoxy over a solid walnut base.
  • The astronauts and the shuttle are set inside the pour, suspended at depth.
  • No two are the same. The nebula and the grain never repeat.
  • 16 colours on a remote, included on every size.
  • USB powered. No batteries, no lithium cell, nothing to replace.

Sizes and weight

10 × 6 in · about 2.1 lb (950 g)

Measurements include the walnut base. Because each piece is poured and cut by hand, expect small variation between one lamp and the next.

Materials

Epoxy resin, poured and cured by hand. Solid walnut base. A 5V USB LED module with a remote. No lithium cell anywhere in it.

The light

The base lights the resin from underneath. Sixteen colours and brightness control, on a small remote, included with every size.

The blue-violet in most of the photographs is one of the presets. Warm white makes the same piece read completely differently, which is worth trying before you settle on one.

Care

A dry microfibre cloth is all it needs. Resin scratches like acrylic, so no abrasives and no solvents.

Keep it out of direct sunlight. Prolonged UV will yellow any epoxy over a long enough time.

Shipping and damage cover

Free shipping to any US address, tracked, arriving in about 8 to 15 days. It ships from the workshop where it's poured, which is most of that time.

If it arrives cracked or chipped, send a photo within 30 days and a replacement goes out. You don't need to ship the broken one back — returning it would cost more than the lamp.

Shipping protection is included on every order. If your parcel is lost or stolen in transit, we send another one. No claim form and no argument about proof of delivery.

With the lights off

It doesn't start until the room goes dark.

Lights on, it's an object. A wedge of dark resin on a walnut base, the kind of thing that reads as a piece of art on a shelf and gets picked up by people who visit.

Then the room goes off. The base lights it from underneath and the resin stops being a surface. It becomes depth — a nebula sitting in the middle of a desk, with two small figures drifting through it.

Every video of one of these is shot in the dark. This is why.

Poured, not printed

The nebula is inside the resin, not on it.

The cheap version of this is a printed film sandwiched in acrylic, or a plastic shell with an LED behind it. You can always tell, because every single unit is identical.

This one is poured. Pigment is worked into wet epoxy in layers, so the cloud structure sits at different depths and shifts as you move around it. The astronauts and the shuttle are set into the pour and suspended there, not stuck to a back panel.

It also means no two come out the same. The nebula in yours will not be the nebula in these photographs. That isn't a disclaimer — it's most of the reason the thing is worth owning.

Which one

Three sizes. Same scene.

6 × 4 in

Desk-sized. Sits next to a monitor without competing with it. About 1.2 lb.

8 × 5 in

What most people picture. Reads properly from across a room. About 1.7 lb.

10 × 6 in

A statement piece. Wants its own space on a sideboard or a wide shelf. About 2.1 lb.

If you're buying it for someone

For the one who still stops for a launch.

You know the type. Read about every new deep-field image the week it came out. Has a favourite mission. Works at a desk they've arranged carefully and would notice one more good object on it.

It's an easy gift for that person because it asks nothing of them. It isn't a telescope they'd have to learn, or a model they'd have to build, or something they'd feel obliged to display. It's a good-looking object that turns their room into somewhere else after dark.

Plug the USB in. That's the whole setup.

Before you order

It comes a long way.

Each lamp ships from the workshop that pours it. Eight to fifteen days to a US address, free, tracked from the moment it leaves.

It's resin over solid wood, so it's heavier and more breakable than it looks in a video. Occasionally one still arrives cracked. If yours does, send a photo within 30 days and a replacement goes out. Don't ship the broken one back — the freight would cost more than the lamp.

Buying it for December? Order by the last week of November. We'd rather tell you that now than take the order and hope.

Questions people actually ask.

How long does delivery take?

Eight to fifteen days to a US address, free, with tracking. Most of that is transit — it ships from the workshop where it's poured.

Will mine look like the photographs?

Close, but not identical. Each one is hand-poured, so the cloud structure and the wood grain come out differently every time. The scene, the figures and the colours are the same.

Does it need batteries?

No. It runs off USB — a phone charger, a laptop port, a power bank. There's no lithium cell in it and nothing to replace.

What are the light colours?

Sixteen, with brightness control, on a small remote that's included with every size. The blue-violet in most of the photographs is one preset; warm white makes the same piece read completely differently.

Which size should I get?

6 × 4 in for a working desk. 8 × 5 in for a shelf or a room — this is what most people picture. 10 × 6 in as a statement piece with its own space.

Buying it as a gift and don't know the room? Take the 8 × 5 in.

What if it arrives damaged?

Send a photo within 30 days and we'll replace it. You don't need to return the broken one.

What does shipping protection cover?

It's included on every order. If your parcel is lost or stolen in transit, we send another one — no claim form and no argument about proof of delivery.

Can I leave it on?

It's a 5V USB LED, about the draw of a small desk light. Most people switch it on in the evening and off with the room.

Turn the room off.

Free shipping, 8 to 15 days, and 30 days of damage cover.
