Inside a clear crystal sphere, a planet sits engraved in three dimensions, laser-etched dots that only resolve into a shape once the light behind them comes on. The base holds a warm white LED at 3000 K, low enough that the glow stays soft in a dark room. The sphere is 6 cm across on a 7 cm base, and the whole thing weighs a quarter of a kilogram, so it stays where you put it.

It belongs on a surface you pass at night. On a bedside table it gives enough light to orient by without waking anyone properly. On a desk it works as a small anchor beside a monitor, warm against the cold of a screen. On a shelf among books it reads as an object during the day and a light after dark. Anyone with an interest in astronomy will pick it up before you finish explaining it, which makes it an easy thing to give.

Power is USB with the cable included, so it will run from a wall adapter, a laptop or a power bank. The LED is integrated and not user-replaceable. Keep the crystal clean with a dry microfibre cloth, since fingerprints show immediately on a sphere this size. Vandora keeps its small pieces as well made as the large ones.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the design only show when it's lit?

Yes, that is the effect. The planet is laser-etched inside the crystal as tiny points, and they only resolve into a visible shape once the LED behind them switches on. Off, the sphere looks like plain clear crystal; on, the design appears in three dimensions.

How do I power it?

It runs on USB, and the cable is included, so it works from a wall adapter, a laptop, or a power bank. There is no separate transformer to source. Just plug it in wherever is convenient near where you want it placed.

Is the light too bright for a bedside table?

No. The LED puts out a warm white glow at 3000 K, kept low enough to stay soft in a dark room. It gives enough light to orient by at night without being bright enough to wake anyone properly.

Can I replace the bulb if it dims?

The LED is integrated into the base and is not user-replaceable, so there is nothing to swap out. It is built as a complete object rather than a lamp with separate parts.

How do I keep the crystal clean?

Use a dry microfibre cloth, since fingerprints show immediately on a sphere this size and this clear. A quick wipe after handling keeps it looking sharp. Avoid anything wet, since moisture is not needed and could reach the electronics in the base.
