- Deep aubergine and purple resin, with a band picked out across the brim
- A warm, low glow for the dark afternoons that start in September
- Small enough for a hall table, a windowsill or a bookshelf
- Good in October, and still good in June, which is more than the rest of the box manages
It comes out in October. It does not have to go back in the loft in November.
Almost everything bought for Halloween is funny for a fortnight and then lives in a box under the stairs, looking slightly sorrier each year. A deep purple lamp is a deep purple lamp in March as well.
- Proper autumn character without a single plastic pumpkin
- A lamp you would keep out anyway, which happens to suit the season
- Something with a bit of nerve to it, for the woman who has always liked the darker end of the year
One size, about 15 cm tall — small enough for a sill, big enough to notice. It tends to find a permanent spot on the hall table.
Why the rest of the Halloween box lets you down
LOFT BOUND
The box of decorations
Up for a fortnight, down for fifty weeks, and a little more battered each time it comes out.
PLASTIC AND ORANGE
A light-up pumpkin
Fine on a doorstep for one night. Not something you would leave on a hall table in front of guests.
STICKY TAPE
Bunting, cobwebs and paper cut-outs
Marks on the paintwork, a morning spent putting them up, and the bin on the first of November.
TIRED BY DECEMBER
A seasonal wreath
Handsome on the door in October, faded by Christmas, and replaced before the year is out.
Seasonal enough for October. Good enough to keep out for the other eleven months.
What it's actually made of
Colour cast through the resin, not printed on it
It is moulded resin with a stained-glass finish. The colour runs right through each panel rather than being printed on the surface, and the dark outlines are moulded in as part of the piece, so the light comes through in blocks rather than as one flat purple glow.
A hat with a proper brim
The purples run darkest up the point of the crown and lift towards the brim, with a distinct band where the two meet. The brim is what does the work: without that width and the slight kink in the point, it would be a cone.
Sits flat and wide
The brim gives it a broad, steady footprint, which is exactly what you want on a hall table people brush past on the way to the door.

A hat for a very small witch
Brim and all, it asks for no more of the hall table than a mug does — here it is lit beside one.

Common questions
Is it bright enough to be useful, or is it just for the season?
It is an accent lamp rather than a main light. It gives a hall or a windowsill a warm purple glow in the evening, which is as good in January as it is at the end of October.
How is it powered?
It runs from a USB cable, so it plugs into any USB adapter, a laptop or a power bank — whatever socket is nearest the hall table. No candle to watch and no batteries to hunt for on the thirty-first.
How big is it?
About 15 cm tall and 15 cm wide, and 10 cm front to back — roughly one and a half times the height of a mug. It sits happily on a hall table, a windowsill or a bookshelf without taking the surface over. Measurements are approximate and vary a little from design to design.
How do I clean it?
A dry, soft cloth, or a soft brush across the brim and down the crown. No solvents, polishes or harsh sprays — resin does not take kindly to them.
Where does it look best?
A hall table by the front door is the obvious one in autumn. After that it earns its keep on a bookshelf, a landing windowsill or a bedside table, where the purple is simply a good colour rather than a costume.
Will it arrive in one piece?
It is cast resin rather than real glass, so it is far harder to break than it looks and will not shatter if it is caught by a coat sleeve. It is cushioned and boxed for the journey all the same. If anything does arrive damaged, send us a photograph and we will put it right.
Can I return it if it is not right?
Yes, you have 30 days. If it is not what you hoped for, get in touch and we will arrange the return.

"It went on the hall table for Halloween and it is still there in February. Nobody has asked me to move it, including me."

"I have a granddaughter who thinks she is a witch. She got one for her room and I quietly ordered a second for the landing."
