Description from the seller
Vintage Fantasia Plasma Ball Lamp – Great Tesla Globe – 1987-1989 – Space Age / Postmodern design
Impressive original vintage “Fantasia” plasma ball lamp from the late 1980s. This iconic decorative object from the late 80s combines science, lighting and retro-futuristic design into one spectacular whole.
The large glass globe of about 23 cm is filled with electrically charged gas that, when switched on, creates a fascinating and dynamic light show. The colorful plasma discharges move through the globe and respond to touching the glass, producing a magical visual effect that strongly evokes classic Tesla experiments.
This specimen stands out due to:
* the large transparent globe,
* the elegant black geometric base,
* the original Fantasia logo,
* and the beautiful etched decor in the glass, adding extra depth and character to the piece.
The lamp features three different settings:
* a low, medium, and high intensity,
Additionally, the brightness is adjustable via the knob on the front.
Plasma lamps were particularly popular in the late 1980s as futuristic home decor and science fiction objects. Today they are beloved by collectors of:
* Space Age design,
* postmodern design,
* Memphis style,
* retro electronics,
* vintage lighting,
* and curios from the years ’87-’89
A true eye-catcher for:
* interior,
* lounge,
* studio,
* mancave,
* design space,
* or vintage collection.
Condition:
Working and in good vintage condition with normal light signs of use appropriate to age and use.
Important:
Responds to touch of the glass. Do not touch with wet hands or metal objects.
Brand: Fantasia
Material: Acrylic, plastic and electronics
Dimensions: H 38 cm x W 23 cm x D 29.5 cm

Seller's Story
I have a passion for vintage design, and my objects mainly come from Scandinavia. I seek out unique gems that are then offered to new owners through this platform. I ensure that the objects are very well packaged so they can arrive safely. I hope that, through my circular mission of sustainability, these beautiful objects can be given a second life, serving as a good example for many others.
