From the world of the Light Carafe

Water by day. Light by night.

A carafe for the table — and when the sun goes down, it becomes a lamp. The SOMO solar light sits in the lid: it charges through the day and glows through the evening. Two sizes, four shapes, one idea.

The light in the lid: SOMO

It sits inside. It comes out. It fits every Sonnenglas.

Solar cells, battery and light in one module: the SOMO charges in the sun by day and glows in your Light Carafe at night. Take it out and use it on its own – as a flashlight, in another Sonnenglas or under the Lightshade.

SOMO has been around since 2022 – and it also fits every older Sonnenglas, right back to the first one from 2013. Your jar stays; only the light gets new.

The story

The Light Carafe C1 is a water carafe by day and a lamp on the table by night. It holds one litre and stands 27 centimetres tall; on top sits the SOMO Classic — it charges on the windowsill by day and glows warm white and dimmable through the glass by night. And like everything we make, it belongs to the Victoria Yards factory that carries fair jobs in Johannesburg.

The C1 comes on its own or as a set including the SOMO Classic. If you already own a Sun Jar Classic, its SOMO simply moves over.

The shape. Both hold one litre and take the same SOMO Classic — which one belongs on your table is a matter of taste.
