Rechargeable telescopic lantern with fold-out tripod legs, in green or white. The post raises the light above the table.
Curated for the hours after six
Turn it low and nobody moves.
The table empties when the light goes, not when the conversation ends. This is one way to keep everyone where they are.
First evening
The first evening
One week
After a week
You find the setting you actually use and stop cycling through the rest.
Two weeks
After two weeks
It stops going back in the cupboard and stays on the table where you use it.
One month
Every evening after
Turning it on becomes the thing that starts the evening, the same as pulling out a chair.
The table stays where it is
The post extends and the light sits above the table instead of on it. The legs fold out on uneven ground. Turn it low and nobody moves until midnight.
Light that stands on its own
The post extends to raise the light above the table, and collapses back down for storage.
It stands anywhere
The tripod legs fold out from the base, so it holds on uneven ground.
It gets taller
The telescopic post lifts the light above the table instead of leaving it in the middle of it.
One button
A single button on the body turns it on and cycles the light. Nothing to learn.
No cord
It runs on its own battery, so there is nothing to trip over and nothing to plug in.
How the evening goes with it
The table stays lit
On the first evening
Nobody suggests going in
From the first evening
Stands on uneven ground
Whenever the light goes
Light above, not in your eyes
Every evening after that
Why We Chose This One
We chose this one because the post raises the light above the table instead of into everyone's eyes. Legs fold out on uneven ground, and one button does everything.
