Let the Sun Shine
Imagine being able to catch sunlight, to hold it in a jar that you can bring out later, releasing a warm afternoon glow into the night air. The idea is not such a fanciful idea when you have these fantastic solar tea lights. Displayed on your patio table or nestled along your flagstones, they provide an ambient glow that catches the bright colors of the swirled glass enclosures. Each light's silvery cap conceals a solar panel, which powers the long-lasting, energy-efficient LED bulb inside. A sensor in the lid automatically turns the light on when it's dark. The brightness and duration of the light will vary depending on the amount of light exposure it has received. Hand-blown in China by glass artisans.

We love these hand-blown glass Solar Tealights that Katie found. Which jar of sunshine is your favorite, the soft white, green and blue, or bold gold?

These are super cute. I would buy 2 out of the 3 colors. Not so found of the white one. Would love to see a purple or orange/red color scheme.

Love them but some more colors would be even better. the white is a tad boring - add a coral color instead.
Kaitlin
Vote: Thumbs up!
Adorable, very cute, and a great price. Unfortunately, if you don't want it made in China, it is going to be expensive. These are a great addition to uncommon goods.

I agree that the white should be replaced with a more vibrant color and the price should be lowered.
Kelly

I like this but I don't like that it's from China. Don't trust items made over there.
Kathleen
Vote: Thumbs up!
Adorable! BUT... I think they would be better as a set, with a discount for buying more than one. Say 3 for $60?
Betty

Really cute!All 3 for $25??

Delightful and a neat gift to own; however, it's made in China and I plan to be more conscious with my purchases. Let's support those who create and make goods in America!

Nice colors, but too expensive for the use that they were meant for. Better sold as a set, but you better work on that price.

Only product in the running that I've liked so far. This one's not only pretty but practical. But the price is too high. I'll buy it when it goes on sale.

Sway

This price is too high. The set is not all uniform with the copper tops. Made in china. No thank you.
Anita

Love these. They are very pretty. Would prefer to pay $25.00 for all three.
Janet
Vote: Thumbs up!
Not sure they are going to give much light though
Kim
Vote: Thumbs down!
Initially, I gave this a thumbs up and then I read the made in China part. I thought the price was $25 because they were handmade in the U.S.

You had me until the plastic caps, why not metal?
Kim

too expensive
Holly

That copper toned plastic caps is at odds with artistry of the glass. Make it real copper?

very cute. wish they were made in the usa. I'm thinking about purchasing but really don't need them til summertime.
Jennifer
Vote: Thumbs up!
I love these - especially the gold, but truthfully I wouldn't pay $25 per lamp for the size. I would want multiples, so if there was a buy more than 1 for a discounted rate, I'd be sold.

I love that its solar powered plus they would be great for a back patio during a small gathering.

Love them just wish they used something other than plastic on the top!
Becca
Vote: Thumbs down!
I think $25 is a bit expensive for just one, and I would be more likely to buy them if they were part of a set. Also, the plastic tops ruin the elegance of the hand-blown glass. If the tops were metal I wouldn't mind paying the set price.
Rita

I've not had good luck with LED bulbs and the price is too high unless you get all three for $25.

These are much more attractive than some of the other solar lights on the market.

$25 for 3 would be a fair price, not but $25 for a single solar lantern that doesn't even give off that much light. Sorry, but I've seen much brighter solar lights from Target for a lower price.
Jennifer
Vote: Thumbs down!
I'd like to know at least an estimate of how long the light will last to know if it's worth the purchase.

Very cute, i like the colors.

Led?
Cassie, UncommonGoods Community Moderator
Hi, Pam! LED lights, or Light-emitting diodes, are small, semiconducting light sources that are actually more energy efficient and last longer than incandescent light bulbs.
Jennifer
Vote: Thumbs up!
very cute, love that they're solar - assuming price is for a set of 3 - otherwise prohibitively expensive at tealight size
Karen
Vote: Thumbs up!
I think the price point would need to be around $20/each to be workable (set of 3 for $55?)
donna
Vote: Thumbs up!
cute lightbulb shape... great for patios. sad that they are manufactured in China. wish they were sold as sets. $25 for one is a bit pricey.
Ann

The item does not appear well-made.
Elizabeth

Very cute. Would expect at least 3 for $25 though. Would not buy if just one.
