Resin poured over a solid wood base with an octopus suspended mid-swim inside it, and an RGB emitter underneath aimed straight up through the block. It is 7.9 inches across and weighs 2.3 lb, which is more than it looks. Press the button once and the room turns green. Press it again and it is blue. It holds whatever colour you left it on — nothing cycles on its own unless you tell it to.

Record
Catalogue number
M-102
Dimensions
7.9 × 4.9 in (20 × 12.5 cm). 2.3 lb (1,050 g).
Material
Cast epoxy resin over a solid wood base. One pour per unit.
Power
Plugs into a standard outlet. White cable and remote in the box. No battery, so it stays where it is plugged in.
Light
One RGB emitter under the base. The button steps through fixed colours; the remote adds brightness and a cycling mode.
Requires
One outlet within cable reach, and the other lights off. In daylight the resin reads as a solid block.
Best hour
After dark. This is the last object you switch on, not the first.
Placement
Nightstand, desk or shelf at eye level when seated, with a wall behind it to catch the colour.
Varies by unit
The base is a real piece of wood. Grain, edge colour and the line where the resin meets it change from one unit to the next.
Delivery
6 to 10 days. 1 to 3 to pack, 5 to 8 in transit.
In the box
The lamp, the cable, the remote and a free Thinker Figure. Four things.
What this object does not do
  • It does not light a room. Nobody has ever read a book by it.
  • It does not change colour by itself. It holds the one you left it on until you press again, unless you set the remote to cycle.
  • It does not run on batteries. It needs an outlet within reach of a standard cable.
  • It will not match the photograph exactly. The wood is real, so no two bases are identical.
How it works
  • Three emitters, one housingRed, green and blue sit under the base, aimed up through the resin. Every colour this object can make is those three mixed at different strengths — there is nothing else in there.
  • The button steps the mixEach press changes how much of each emitter is on. No screen, no menu, no app: the object has one control and it is on the cable.
  • The wood stops the lightThe base is opaque, so all of it goes up into the scene instead of spilling across the table. That is why the octopus reads as lit from inside the water rather than lit from underneath.

Octopus LampThis one

Wider than a paperback and half its height. It fits on a nightstand without taking the nightstand.

Between paying and holding it

Six to ten days, drawn out in full.

  1. Today The order is placed Payment is taken once. Mauna does not keep the card.
  2. It is packed and handed over One to three days. Most orders leave inside two.
  3. It travels, and you can watch it The tracking number is emailed the day the label is printed, before the parcel moves.
  4. It is at your door Anywhere in the fifty states, Alaska and Hawaii included. No signature needed.

Mauna has no warehouse in the United States, so nothing here arrives in two days. That is the trade: the objects cost what they cost because the store did not build a building.

How is it powered?

It plugs in, with the cable included in the box. There is no battery to replace and nothing to charge.

Is it bright enough to light a room?

No, and it is not meant to be. It is an accent light for a nightstand, a shelf or a sill. If you are looking for something to read by, this is the wrong object.

Does it stay on one color, or does it keep cycling?

It stays. Press the button until you reach the color you want and it holds it until you press again. Nothing changes on its own while you are asleep.

Will mine look exactly like the photograph?

No, and that is expected. The resin is hand-poured, so the bubbles, the depth of the wave and the exact placement of the scene vary between units. Two lamps are never identical. That is not a defect, and it is not a reason a return would be refused either.

Does it get hot?

No. It runs on LEDs and stays cool enough to hold after hours of being on. It costs almost nothing to leave running.

What is the remote for?

Changing the color without reaching behind the lamp. The button on the lamp does the same thing.

How big is it?

8 inches wide by 5 inches tall, on a wooden base. It fits on a nightstand without taking the whole nightstand.

Can I leave it on all night?

Yes. It is an LED and it runs cool. Plenty of people use it as a night light for exactly that reason.
