Entry DescriptionFable is designed for guiding. The smallest and lightest of its kin, Fable bounds through the night in a form reminiscent of the guiding hares of folklore. With an abstract silhouette and delicate, glowing glass, this nimble lamp ushers light through shadows—a beacon for those adrift in the dark, leading with quiet grace and storied charm.
Fable is a part of the Passages Collection - a series of 6 portable outdoor lamps inspired by movement from one place to another, whether between worlds or spaces, legendary or momentary, solitary or tribal, from darkness to light. Both exploring and collapsing the boundary between the outdoors and the in, Passages marries the familiar warmth and luxury of the indoors with the ethereal and evocative spirit of the outdoors. Designed for behaviors and movements within and across spaces more than particular places, the entire collection is portable and cordless for both indoor and light outdoor use.
Sustainability ApproachWe believe the most sustainable product is one that’s never disposed of. That’s why our lantern, Fable, is built to endure. Its simple, timeless design transcends aesthetic trends while using durable materials - with parts that can be repaired or replaced. We made Fable to be a lasting companion, something you can use for years, share with friends, or pass down to family.
