Lamps were illumination devices and light-producing tools used throughout the galaxy.
Description
Lamps were used to illuminate dark areas. Some were more elegant than practical, and the likes of office lamps, illuminators, and wish globes were used as items of furniture. The bloggin-oil lamp used on Jakku provided cheap light with the use of oil extracted from native bloggins.[1]
History
During the era of the Galactic Republic, numerous political figures including Senator Bail Organa and Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine kept office lamps, and Padmé Amidala owned both an illuminator and a wish globe. The bounty hunter Jango Fett used a setla lamp.[1]
The Kallidahin Osh Scal wore a shoulder lamp while working at the Polis Massa Base on the asteroid Polis Massa.[2]
Chirrut Îmwe's staff was capped with a metal lamp containing a kyber crystal sliver. The lamp provided a symbolic source of light and helped Chirrut to gauge where the end of his staff was.[3]
Scavengers on Jakku made use of bloggin-oil lamps to create a cheap form of light. These practical devices stored bloggin oil in a bowl at the base, which was fed through an oil pump regulator to fuel a high output burner. A dimmer switch was activated by twisting the top of the lamp.[1]
