With a beautiful & distinctive nautical> Whether placed on a table top in your home, or hanging from a tree in the garden by its rustic rope handle, the warm white LED light emanates softly, casting intricate shadows through the ridged design in the glass. The lantern charges during the day, through the amorphous solar panel in the lid, & there's no need to worry about remembering to switch the light off since the lantern will turn on automatically at dusk, when set to the on position. The on/off switch is tucked away, out of sight, on the inside of the lid, along with the rechargeable battery. If you want to create a slightly different feature with this stunning lantern, you could always switch off the integrated LED & place a battery candle inside the jar, maybe even trying different colours!
