A frosted globe held in a powder-coated steel cradle. Danish designer Maria Berntsen reduced the lantern to its most considered form — sphere, frame, light — and made it genuinely portable. Solar cells beneath the shade charge it through daylight; USB handles the rest. Set it on a table for dinner outside, carry it in afterward if you like. It doesn't require a plan.

Designed by Copenhagen-based Maria Berntsen for Rosendahl, a Danish design house forty years deep in the same founding premise: everyday things deserve to be made well.

Riley A. ★★★★★

The frosted globe gives off such a warm, even glow that it feels like a tiny sunset on my desk, and the steel cradle is sturdy enough to carry outside without a second thought. I've been using it for a week now, and the solar cell keeps it lit well into the evening without any fuss.

Emily W. ★★★★★

Set it on the windowsill after work and it’s already glowing by dusk, which is exactly what I hoped for. The steel cradle feels solid enough to carry around without worrying about it bending, and the frosted globe throws a warm, even light that’s perfect for the patio.

Ellie ★★★★★

The frosted globe diffuses the light so evenly it’s like holding a little piece of sunset, and the steel cradle keeps it feeling sturdy in your hand. I’ve left it on the windowsill all day and it’s still glowing softly come evening, which is exactly what I needed for the patio.
