The 1990s re-launch of the original lava lamps saw sales grow strongly for Mathmos again from 10,000 lamps a year in 1989 to 800,000 lamps a year in 1999. Mathmos won two Queens Awards for Export and a number of other business awards. [8] Edward Craven-Walker remained a consultant and company director at Mathmos until his death in 2000.
Lava lamps An original Mathmos Astro lava lamp A lava lamp is a decorative lamp , invented in 1963 by British entrepreneur Edward Craven Walker , the founder of the lighting company Mathmos . It consists of a bolus of a special coloured wax mixture inside a glass vessel, the remainder of which contains clear or translucent liquid.
Astro lamp has been in continuous production for 60 years and has been handmade in Britain since 1963, [6] and is still made today by Mathmos in Poole. The Mathmos lava lamp formula developed initially by Craven Walker in the 1960s and then improved with his help in the 1990s is still used.
A re-drafted article should also include reference to Mathmos as the UK manufacturer of lava lamps (non-capitalised). One of the issues here, I feel, is that the title "lava lamp" has become a semi-generic in the way 'Hoover', 'Biro', et al have done in the past, and any article needs to clarify this. --AlisonW 18:23, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
