A story from one of our customers
Last year, we said no when people asked to come over.
Not because we didn't want to. The outdoor area just never felt "ready".
This year, we've had people here almost every weekend.
The difference? Honestly: light.
These Light Drops from Ristal along the fence make a perfectly ordinary evening feel like something special.
No cables. No installation. They charge during the day and glow at night.
Our guests were "just going to pop in" last Saturday. They left at half past eleven.
It seems this is just how we live now. And I love it. ❤️

So what are they, exactly?
A solar lantern that looks after itself
The Light Drop is a stainless steel lantern shaped like a drop of water, cut with a flower pattern. The small panel on top charges it during the day. At dusk it switches itself on, and the pattern spills across the fence, the deck and the table.
- Charges itself in daylight. No cables, no power point, no electrician.
- Comes on by itself at dusk. Glows for up to 8 hours, then charges again the next day.
- Hangs in seconds. The wall mount is in the box. A shepherd's hook or a branch works just as well.
- Lives outside all year. Weatherproof stainless steel that doesn't rust, flake or fade.
- Built to last, and backed for 3 years. Replaceable battery. If it stops working within 3 years, we replace it free.
It's the pattern that does it
A plain solar light just makes a bright spot. The Light Drop throws a ring of little flowers across whatever it's hanging near. That's what people notice, and that's what makes a fence or a deck feel finished after dark.
Warm 2700K light, the colour of a candle. Not the cold white of a security light.
One thing to know before you order: this is a mood light, not a floodlight. It's made to make an evening feel warm, not to light up the whole yard. If you want to read a book by it, this isn't the one. If you want your fence to look like the photo at the top, it is.
What other people say
Such fun solar lights that leave a fun pattern. Had mine for years and they still continue to work.
Verified buyerI bought four of them to hang on my arbor. They are so pretty. The design shows through with a soft glow!!
Verified buyerHonestly, you need to buy this. It lights up every evening and it's absolutely gorgeous.
Verified buyerHow many do you need?
One is lovely by the front door. Along a fence, like the photo at the top, three is the number that makes people go quiet for a second.

Questions people ask us
Does it work on cloudy days?
Yes. It charges in daylight, not just direct sun. On a dull day it will glow for fewer hours that night. Hang it where it gets the most daylight and it will do the rest.
Do I have to switch it on every evening?
No. Once it's up, it turns itself on at dusk and off again in the morning. There's nothing to remember.
How bright is it?
Think candlelight, not a torch. It's a warm glow with a pattern, made for atmosphere. Most people hang two or three together for a fence or a deck.
Can it stay out in the rain?
Yes. It's made of weatherproof stainless steel and is designed to live outside all year round.
What if it stops working?
If it stops working within 3 years, we replace it free. No return shipping, no registration. The battery is also replaceable, so the lantern outlives its first battery.
How do I hang it?
A wall mount and hook come in the box. You can also hang it from a shepherd's hook in a garden bed, a pergola, or a tree branch. It takes about a minute.
Do you deliver across Australia?
Yes, to your door anywhere in Australia. Orders are dispatched within 48 hours on business days. Shipping is free on orders over $100, and you have 60 days to return it free if it's not for you.

It takes a minute to hang, and the first evening you'll understand.
