This vase is so lovely and really unusual. This is a well-made combination of two different products; not only do you have a beautiful textured glass lamp, you also have a usable vase too. I got a plastic vase light last year, but this Aukey one is in a different class altogether, it’s just pure elegance and class.

​

There are basically 4 separate components to this lamp; the glass lamp itself, the inner glass-like vase insert, the USB charging base and the remote control. The main vase is made from a thick frosted glass with very fine horizontal lines etched into it; this texture really enhances the vase when it’s lit up. If you want to put artificial flowers in the vase you can put them directly in the vase, but if you are using it for real flowers in water you will need to use the insert. The lamp is just over 16cm high and 9cm wide at the bottom, tapering up to 6cm at the top; however the vase inset is 4cm across and 11cm deep, so a very usable size, but probably more of a posy vase than one to hold a bouquet.

​

You can either use the buttons at the front of the vase at the bottom to operate it or the remote control. A simple feature of the operating buttons on the vase is that you have to hold the power button on for few seconds to turn it on or off; I’ve owned a few overly sensitive touch operated lamps that either accidentally turn on or off with the slightest touch, which is very annoying.

​

This lamp looks very stylish lit or unlit. In relation to lighting, you have quite a few options; you can chose to have the light static on white or any of the 6 colours, there are also 6 different brightness settings for the white and all the colours. Alternatively you can have it changing through the spectrum of colours; either a slow gradual blending or a harsher pulsing, the speeds of both of these are adjustable.

​

The charging base is a flat circular disc with a raised section in the middle that the vase sits on, a USB cable then connects to the rear of the base. Once charged the lamp vase can be removed from the base and used anywhere, a full charge gives about 16hours of constant use of the light. But you can leave the light on the base and use it if you want and obviously using it that way, it will stay fully charged.

​

This is a really gorgeous lamp, I’d definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone, I love it!  And of course, as with all Aukey products,  it comes with their standard 2 year warranty
