The salt used to make crystal salt lamps began forming over 250 million years ago, while the earth was still in the beginning stages of formation. Large land masses between Pakistan and the Indian Ocean collided under a great deal of pressure. This pressure pushed up the ocean floor and created what we know today as the Himalayan Mountains. As the years went by, the combination of the pressure and the salt water evaporating left the perfect environment for the salt crystals to form. Unlike 95% of the earth’s salt, this salt was protected from the pollution that primarily began to pollute the earth’s salt sources during the industrial age. Safely tucked away inside the Himalayan Mountains, this salt is today considered to be one of the purest and healthiest salts available, making it the most appropriate for crystal salt lamps.

Crystal salt lamps are mined from the Khewra Salt Mine located in Pakistan. This salt mine extends across three cities and is the second largest in the world. Major salt mining companies have been given the authority to extract the salt to create crystal salt lamps for the purpose of exporting them throughout the world.read more...
