About This Lamp
On a dark winter evening, this little lantern makes a quiet corner feel warm and safe.
It looks just like an old oil lamp, with a curved glass chimney and a small hook handle. But the flame is a soft LED that sways like a real one.
There is no fire, no smoke and no hot wax, so you can set it near children and pets without a worry.
Sven tests every lantern himself and packs it in its gift box, ready to place under the tree.
- Light: Warm LED flame that gently sways
- Power: Cordless, 3 button batteries
- Size: About 7 x 5.5 x 18 cm
- Finish: Black, White or Bronze Gold
How long does a charge last?
Most of our cordless lamps run for many hours on a single charge, and longer on the lower, warmer settings.
When the light fades, top it up with the USB-C cable in the box. A full charge takes a few hours.
Caring for Your Lamp
Wipe the base with a soft dry cloth. Brush the fabric shade gently to keep the pleats crisp. Our care guide walks you through it.

Pairs Nicely With This
Finished by Hand, Made to Glow
Astrid and Sven have run this little lighting shop since 1979. Every lamp is cordless and rechargeable, with a warm glow you can dim right down to a candle.
Astrid pleats and finishes every fabric shade by hand, one at a time. When a design is gone, it's gone.
Four good reasons
Why these lamps don't get switched off
- Cordless, so it goes anywhereNo plug, no trailing wire. Put it on the mantel, the windowsill, the bathroom shelf or the garden table.
- A warm glow you can dimTurn it down to a soft candlelight for the evening, or up when you need to read. Easy on tired eyes.
- Shades finished by handAstrid pleats and presses every fabric shade herself. No two are rushed, and none are hollow plastic.
- Charges and forgetsA few hours on the USB-C cable gives you evening after evening of light. No batteries to keep buying.
In the North, We Never Fought the Dark
Here the winters are long and the evenings start early. For as long as anyone can remember, people in the North answered the dark the same way: not by fighting it, but by making it warm.
A lamp in the window. A candle on the table. A soft pool of light to gather around while the snow comes down.
The same warm glow, in your home. For every long evening ahead.

Your Questions, Our Answers
Still wondering about something? Write to us. Astrid or Sven will answer.
Is it really cordless?
Yes. There is no plug and no trailing wire. The lamp holds its own charge, so you can set it anywhere: a shelf, a windowsill, the dinner table, even outside on a still evening.
When the light fades, you charge it with the USB-C cable in the box, the same way you charge a phone.
How long does one charge last?
It depends on how bright you keep it. On the lower, warmer settings most of our lamps glow for many hours; turned up bright, the evening is shorter.
A full charge takes a few hours. Most people top theirs up once or twice a week.
Is the light warm or harsh?
Warm. These were made for cozy evenings, not for an office.
Many of our lamps let you dim the glow right down to a soft candlelight, or step it up when you want to read.
Are the shades really made by hand?
The fabric shades are. Astrid pleats, presses and finishes each one herself, one at a time.
The lamp base holds the light and the battery; the shade is the part made by hand, and it's why no two feel mass-produced.
Can I use it outside?
Our outdoor and solar lights are built for it. The indoor table lamps are happiest on a covered porch or a still, dry evening, then back inside.
Each product page says where a light belongs.
How long until it arrives?
United States and United Kingdom: usually 5 to 10 business days.
Everywhere else, including Canada, Australia and New Zealand: 6 to 12 business days.
Shipping is free on every order.
What if I don't like it?
Send it back within 30 days and we'll refund you in full. Wrong room, wrong light, or you just changed your mind: all fine.
We've run this shop on trust for 46 years. We aren't about to stop now.
