Made with a traditional Mason jar & high tech energy efficient lighting. Captured inside the jar are a highly efficient solar cell rechargeable battery & low-energy LED lamps. When the jar is placed in sunlight the solar cell creates an electrical current that charges the battery over a few hours. This energy is then used at night to power the three LED lamps inside the jar. The light is diffused by the frosted jar to give the appearance of sunlight emitting from it (warm coloured LED lights are used to give a more natural & warm light). You may have noticed that there is no switch on the sun jar
- in fact there are no visible controls at all
- there is a clever light sensor inside that automatically activates the lights when it gets dark or lights are turned out!* Mason Jars are not only beautiful but by their very nature they are completely water tight
- so the Sun Jar can happily be left outside in any weather conditions. A perfect garden light or night light for a childs bedroom.

Wonderfully sardonic & slyly humorous the writings of landmark American feminist & socialist thinker Charlotte Perkins Gilman were penned in response to her frustrations with the gender-based double standard that prevailed in America as the twentieth century began. Perhaps best known for her chilling depiction of a woman's mental breakdown in her unforgettable 1892 short story The Yellow Wall-Paper" Gilman also wrote " Herland" a wry novel that imagines a peaceful progressive country from which men have been absent for 2 000 years. Both are included in this volume along with a selection of Gilman's major short stories & her poems." ...
