DUAL GLOBE LIGHTING DEVICE
A lighting device for displaying liquid globules that float and change shapes within a liquid. The device has a base that supports a globe that contains a liquid. A second inner tube is supported in the globe and contains a second liquid and globules that when heated float and change shapes within the second inner tube. The globe may optionally have globules or other materials disbursed in the globe. Similarly the inner tube may have colorant or other matter disbursed in the second liquid. A light source provides the light and heat to make the device operational.
1 . A decorative lamp comprising:
a base;
a globe portion having an open top, a bottom and a wall defining an inner cavity, a cap configured to be mounted to the top of the globe portion, the cap forming a liquid tight seal between the cap and the ton of the globe, a first liquid contained within the inner cavity of the globe portion,
an inner glass rube having a upper end and lower end, the inner glass tube containing a second liquid and liquid globules, the inner glass tube extending from the cap towards the base with the lower end of the inner glass tube in close proximity to the bottom of the globe, and the upper end is sealed to maintain the second liquid therein and maintaining the second liquid separate from the first liquid at all times,
a light source supported by the base portion for illuminating the globe portion;
a heat source positioned in the base in close proximity to the bottom of the globe and configured to heat the liquid globules in the inner glass tube.
