Valentine's Day
A light for two
A Valentine's gift that is not over after one evening. Inside goes what only the two of you understand — a photo, a note, the ticket from your first concert. At night the lantern glows around your piece of shared history. As personal as the two of you — and made to last.

For the jar
What only you two understand
The jar opens. Put in what means something to both of you — at night it glows from within.
An evening that stays
A dinner is over quickly. A Sun Jar is still there afterwards, on the table, the windowsill or the balcony — and glows again every evening. It charges in the sun by day and switches itself on at night. Warm white, dimmable, up to 28 hours of light per charge.
And because it is weatherproof to IP65, it can come along: to a picnic, to the lake, to the balcony on the first warm spring night.
A picnic with light
No cable, no candle for the wind to blow out. Put two lanterns on the blanket and the evening has its light. At the table the Light Carafe does the same: a carafe for water by day, a lamp by night.
Like everything we make, the light comes from our Fair-Trade-certified factory at Victoria Yards, Johannesburg, where people find steady, fairly paid work.

Frequently asked questions
Something that comes back every evening. The Sun Jar charges in the sun by day and glows by itself at night — up to 28 hours per charge. Inside goes what only the two of you understand.
Without an engraving: the jar opens. A photo, a note, the concert ticket or sand from your first holiday together — at night the lantern glows around it.
The Classic (1000 ml) is the big gift for balcony and table. The Mini is hardly bigger than a cup and fits on the bedside table. Both come as complete sets with the SOMO solar light.
The claim rests on facts: recycled glass and stainless steel, sunlight instead of throwaway batteries, made by hand in a Fair-Trade-certified factory that runs almost entirely on solar power.
Yes. The complete set is weatherproof to IP65 — for balcony, garden and a picnic by the lake.
