Salt Lamp
Made by GRAU
Designed by Melchior Grau and Timon Grau
Salt is a lamp that behaves more like a found object than a fixture. Designed by Tobias Grau, its smoothed, pebble-like body is cast in solid aluminum, a form that invites touch before it invites use. That gesture is intentional: brightness is controlled by a tap or a slow glide across the surface, making the act of lighting a room feel unhurried and instinctive.
Completely wireless and rechargeable, Salt is free from the logic of the outlet. It moves with the room, with the mood, with the moment. The warm glow it emits is calibrated for intimacy, suited to a bedside table, a terrace at dusk, or the center of a dinner table where conversation is the point.
- Cast solid aluminum body in a sculptural, organic form
- Touch-sensitive surface for stepless dimming
- Rechargeable and fully cordless
- Warm, atmospherically tuned light output
- Designed and manufactured in Germany
Tobias Grau has built a practice around the idea that lighting should feel as considered as the objects it illuminates. Salt is among the clearest expressions of that sensibility: no excess, no performance, just form and light in quiet conversation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Tobias Grau Salt Lamp suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. The Salt Lamp is designed for both indoor and outdoor settings. Its wireless, rechargeable construction makes it well suited to terraces, garden tables, and any environment where a cord would be impractical.
How does the touch dimming work on the Salt Lamp?
The Salt Lamp's aluminum surface functions as a touch interface. A single tap toggles the light on or off, while a slow press or glide adjusts brightness continuously, allowing for precise, stepless dimming without any visible controls.
How long does the Salt Lamp's battery last on a charge?
Battery life varies with brightness setting, but Tobias Grau engineers the Salt for extended use across an evening. For exact run-time specifications, consulting the product data sheet or a design professional is recommended.
What materials is the Tobias Grau Salt Lamp made from?
The body is cast from solid aluminum, finished to a smooth, organic form that references natural stone. All production takes place in Germany, where Tobias Grau maintains close control over material quality and manufacturing precision.
Who is Tobias Grau and where is the brand based?
Tobias Grau is a German lighting designer and manufacturer based near Hamburg. The brand is known for developing lighting objects that prioritize tactile quality, restraint in form, and precise engineering, with all products designed and produced in Germany.
