1. A novelty lamp comprises four transparent, equilateral, triangular walls of a predetermined thickness, each said wall having a two way mirrored surface, each said wall being disposed adjacent to each other and inclining on a plane intersecting at a common apex, and by doing so, forming an equilateral pyramid structure, which is placed on an equilateral square base aligned along a common meridian with said pyramid structure, and by doing so, enclose a space within, which is constructed a rectangular box having a two way mirrored top, which is attached to said base, the rectangular box encloses a space, wherein a plurality of light sources is placed and a separate interior space that acts as a reflection chamber.2. A novelty lamp of claim 1 wherein said pyramid structure sits upon and/or is attached to said equilateral square base, which is the exact linear dimensions of the linear space created by the intersection of the bottom edges of said pyramid structure, both said base plate and said pyramid structure aligned along a common meridian.3. A novelty lamp of claim 1 wherein said square base plate is constructed of any opaque material of sufficient thickness to support said pyramid structure consisting of wood, metal, plastic, glass or stone.4. A novelty lamp of claim 1 wherein the rectangular box is constructed of four equal side panels, placed perpendicularly to the horizontal plane of said square base and joined to each other at right angles relative to each other, and in doing so, form an equilateral square structure.5. A novelty lamp of claim 4 wherein said equilateral square structure is attached to the top side of said base plate equidistantly from the outer edges of said base plate and aligned along a common meridian of said base plate and said equilateral square structure, forming a base structure; said side panels are approximately fifteen percent of the height of said pyramid structure, measured vertically from apex to base, and are constructed of a totally opaque material consisting of metal, plastic, glass, or stone; the thickness of said side panels could be any thickness between one sixteenth inch thick and two inches thick and is relative and proportional to the size of said pyramid structure.6. A novelty lamp of claim 4 wherein said equilateral square structure is enclosed by a transparent top plate, made preferably of but not limited to plastic or glass, and to which a two way mirrored surface is applied and the linear dimensions of said top plate are an equilateral square that is approximately eighty percent of the linear dimensions of said base plate, with a thickness between one sixteenth inch and two inches thick and is relative and proportional to the size of said pyramid structure.7. A novelty lamp of claim 6 wherein said top plate is attached to the inner sides of said pyramid structure on a horizontal plane that is measured to precisely intersect said inner equilateral square structure when said base plate structure and said pyramid structure are aligned precisely along a common meridian and thus, forms a top structure, and in doing so, encloses an interior space within the pyramid structure, called an inner chamber.8. A novelty lamp of claim 1 wherein said reflection chamber is created when said pyramid structure and said base plate structure are placed precisely along a common meridian, and an inner top plate of said reflection chamber intersects side panels perpendicularly, the resulting enclosed space creates the reflection chamber.9. A novelty lamp of claim 1 wherein the plurality of appropriately sized point light sources ranging from but not limited to 0.05 millimeter light emitting diodes up to and including 10 inches diameter incandescent light bulbs, or any point light sources available, are interspersed in either a particular order or a random order within said light chamber.10. A novelty lamp of claim 8 wherein the light sources are reflected and admitted through said side panels and said top plate in a non-linear, non-repetitive pattern of progressively diminishing intensity; whereas the effect of the lamp displayed to external viewers is that of a virtual recreation of an infinite star field within a finite pyramidal structure.
