Genie's lamp (alternatively referred to as the Magic Lamp or Aladdin's lamp) is a magical oil lamp featured in Aladdin, whose owner has the ability to summon and temporarily control a wish-granting Genie with cosmic power. As it contains an all-powerful servant, the lamp has been coveted by many for thousands of years.
This lamp was originally purchased as a souvenir at Abu Dhabi Airport. It started its life as a trackable in The Netherlands.
Story of Aladdin's Lamp: The lamp has existed for millennia, though its origins are unknown. As one of the most powerful objects in the universe, the lamp was hidden deep within the Cave of Wonders, a cavern that can only be summoned by a golden scarab and entered by an individual known as the Diamond in the Rough.
The lamp itself resembles an oil lamp, which have been used as "genie lamps" in Arabian folklore for generations. In color, it is completely bronze. The interior was described by Genie as very cramped and small. Despite this, the interior has been fully seen as part of the Inside the Genie's Lamp featurette, in which the lamp boasts a large living room, dining room, a master bedroom with a "fly-in" closet, and even a garden decorated with topiaries, flora, and water features. Additional areas that are mentioned (but unseen) include a ballroom and a breakfast nook.
According to the Genie, he had not been summoned from the lamp for 10,000 years, meaning that the lamp had been in the Cave of Wonders for that long. The evil vizier Jafar had spent years trying to find the Cave and manipulates Aladdin into recovering the lamp within. As the Cave crumbles, Jafar briefly has the lamp in his possession, but as he attempts to kill Aladdin, Abu steals it back. Aladdin uses the Genie's power to escape the underground ruins of the Cave, then uses his first wish to become a prince worthy to marry Jasmine. Jafar attempts to kill him the night he comes to Agrabah, but Genie saves him at the cost of his second wish. As Aladdin exposes Jafar's treachery, the vizier sees the lamp in his hat and realizes the truth. Later, Jafar's sidekick parrot Iago steals the lamp and gives it to Jafar, who uses the first two wishes to become a sultan and sorcerer, respectively, again attempting to kill Aladdin by sending him to a snow-covered cliffside far from Agrabah after exposing Prince Ali's true identity to Jasmine. After returning thanks to the Magic Carpet, Aladdin tries to steal back the lamp, but Jafar discovers him and keeps him from doing so. With Jafar ready to kill Aladdin, the latter tricks Jafar into using his third wish to become a genie himself, allowing Aladdin to seal him in his own lamp, which Genie tosses into the depths of the desert. Aladdin reclaims the lamp and, after considering but dismissing using his final wish to become a prince again, he fulfills his promise to Genie and sets him free. From then on, the lamp is used as a home/residence for Genie instead of a prison.
