A moon lamp is a spherical night light printed in 3D from NASA's lunar surface data, so its craters and seas match the real Moon. Light from an LED inside passes through the thinner and thicker parts of the print to reproduce the lunar pattern. Most are USB rechargeable, tap-controlled, and switch between warm white and yellow; some float above a base by magnetic levitation.
🌕
A moon lamp is the night light that everybody understands at once: the Moon, on the table, glowing.
🎁
Warm, personal and universal. Personalised moon lamps with a photo or a message are the gift that gets kept.

The 3D printed surface follows real NASA lunar maps: the craters and seas are in the right place.
Size, colour modes and the base are the three choices. A 12 cm lamp lives on a bedside table; a 20 cm one lights a shelf; a levitating one becomes the centrepiece of the room.
| Type | Best for | Size | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic tap moon lamp | Bedside night light, a first gift | 10 to 15 cm | £28 to £40 |
| Colour changing with remote | Kids' rooms, mood lighting | 15 to 20 cm | £35 to £50 |

| Levitating moon lamp | Statement piece, the gift that gets a reaction | 14 to 18 cm | £120 to £137 |
All moon lamps run on a USB rechargeable battery or a USB cable; the levitating models are mains powered. Each page states the exact modes and dimensions.
The print is a topographic map: where the lunar surface is high, the shell is thicker and lets less light through, so highlands appear brighter and the dark seas darker, exactly as on the real Moon.
The levitating version balances a magnet in the sphere against an electromagnet in the base; the LED is powered wirelessly across the gap.
