A desk lamp that moves from the table to the balcony

No plug, no trailing cable, no hunting for a free outlet. The lamp charges once and then lights whatever surface you set it on for the rest of the week. The shape is plain on purpose: a slim column, a soft dome, nothing else.

Why choose this desk lamp?

Most of what matters sits in the base. A large cell keeps it running far longer than a typical portable light, and the top of the lamp doubles as the switch.

Tap the top to dim: three steps, 30, 60 and 100 percent, cycled with a finger rather than a dial.
Twelve to sixteen hours of light: the 4000 mAh cell carries a long evening on the terrace and the one after it.
Machined metal shell: aluminum gives it weight in the base, so it does not tip when a sleeve catches it.
Light on the warm side: the output stays warm rather than blue, which suits dinner tables and late reading.
Refills from a standard cable: USB type-C, CE certified, so the charger already on your desk will do.

It is a quiet piece of hardware that mostly asks you to remember to charge it now and then.

At 15 by 34 cm it clears a laptop screen on a desk and still reads as a lamp on a side table. The base is narrow enough for a bar cart or a windowsill. Five finishes run from pale wood through walnut to black, white and brass.
