Stained-Glass Table Lamps

After first publishing this story, a Twitter user assured me that one of the lamps being sold on Twitter is indeed real, even if the product doesn't look quite like the photo being used to advertise it. But be careful out there. Some of them are definitely fake.Get more news about high quality custom glass table lamp,you can vist our website!

A series of stained-glass table lamps have sprung up on websites like Amazon, Twitter and Etsy recently, with people shelling out real money for the intricately created decorations. But there are countless reports that people have not received their lamps, and there's probably a very good reason for that. Many of these images of lamps were created using artificial intelligence tools. They're simply not real lamps.

"Transform any room in your home into a magical wonderland with the Stained Glass Table Lamp. It's time to find your inner oasis and immerse yourself in magic," one listing on Amazon reads.

The listing goes on to claim the glass in these lamps is "hand-cut" and everything is handmade. How much does something like this cost? Just $24-an absurdly low price for such an intricate lamp made of expensive materials and labor. In fact, some platforms have an even cheaper price, with these lamps selling for just $6.
But buyer beware. Because I emailed with the real creator behind some of these images and many of these lamps don't exist in the real world.

Vishma Maharaj, who goes by the name Whizical Mermaid on Etsy, sells this AI-assisted art. But Maharaj isn't selling any lamps. Maharaj used AI-image generator Midjourney to create the artistic concoctions and simply sells prints of the colorful lamps, something that buyers can actually purchase.

"What is being done on these various websites has been without my consent nor am I affiliated with any of them," Maharaj told me over email.

"I have tried reporting them to Facebook but have yet to receive a response. They are even being sold on Amazon & Ali Express in addition to the many ads that have been posted on Facebook. This has been very upsetting and stressful to say the least," Maharaj continued.
