I found a couple of them this morning. Someone had thrown them out. It plugs into a standard UK 3-pin socket but the earth pin is a dummy. There's a gap for an external fuse (3 amp according to what's written on the plug). On the front there's what looks like an LED indicator and, rising above it, a vertical perspex panel with an incised design on it like a sunburst: radiating lines of different lengths ending in little balls.
Unfortunately I couldn't find a 3-amp fuse to put into it so I couldn't test it out.
Do I remember correctly that you don't have any means to take photographs? A digitally drawn version would at least help clarify the description.
My first guess would be some form of air freshener, (though unless the external fuse could be securely covered, I doubt it'd be passed as safe for household use).
When you shine a light through the edge of the acrylic, roughed up edges and anything etched into the plastic will refract the light and glow. Its called edge lighting.
