u/A_B96

The second photo shows what kind of lava lamp it was originally.
The bottle had a coloured film over it that was scratched off to reveal clear liquid and white wax. I just spray painted the base and cap with an off white paint that was meant for metals and plastics.

It’s not the best photo because it looks much more yellow than it actually is!

I found through google lens that it’s likely a retro Friedland Stockport chime, the 991 'Chord' model.
The colour is so pretty and even though it’s supposed to be a 70s piece, I feel like it would fit in a mid century space!
