The cordless lamp,
and the voltage question settled

A rechargeable lamp is never plugged in: it crosses the whole region without caring about voltage or frequency. It is the only light fitting we sell the same way on St Martin, on Sint Maarten and on Saba.

Zafferano — Poldina outdoors

Zafferano — Rechargeable cordless lamps — no voltage question — and hand-blown glassware.

The house

An Italian glass house that became a lighting brand

Zafferano comes from hand-blown glass and tableware. The brand built its international name on another idea: the rechargeable lamp, set on a table, with no cable and no socket.

The Poldina has become a standard of European hospitality. A restaurant buys them by the table, charges them overnight, and never has to run an electrical line onto a terrace again.

The ranges

Three families, one hand

The cordless lamp, the wired range and the table glassware come from the same workshop — which lets you match the table lighting and the service, in a restaurant as in a villa.

Wired fittings

Pendants, wall lights and table lamps. We order the version that matches the island’s voltage, and we ship nothing whose rating plate does not read “50/60 Hz”.

Why this brand here

Six reasons that come down
to our islands’ electricity

St-Barth and St Martin run on 220 V; Sint Maarten, Anguilla, St Eustatius and Saba on Voltage by island; St Kitts & Nevis on 230 V at 60 Hz. Here is what that changes, and why this brand escapes the problem.

  • Voltage
    Irrelevant on the cordless rangeA rechargeable lamp cares about neither voltage nor frequency. It is the simplest answer to a territory split in three.
  • Wired range
    Voltage by islandWhen wiring is needed, the brand exists in both voltages. We order the right version for the island — never an adaptor.
  • Battery life
    A full serviceThe criterion that counts in hospitality: the lamp must last the whole evening without anyone thinking about it.
  • Salt air
    Treated bodyOn a seafront terrace, the weak point of a cordless lamp is the charging contact. To be checked model by model.
  • Batteries
    ReplaceableA battery tires in two to three years of intensive use. A fleet is planned with its spares, or it goes dark all at once.
  • Glassware
    Same houseThe blown glassware matches the lamps on the table. It is coherent, and it is a selling point in hospitality.

Ordering and delivery

Battery life and charging

A rechargeable lamp is managed like a fleet: number of units, charging cycle, spare batteries. That is what decides satisfaction two years in, not the drawing.

Fleet
Allow one lamp per table plus ten to fifteen per cent rotating on charge
Charging
Multiple bases available — order them at the same time, not afterwards
Batteries
Plan spares from the initial order on a hospitality fleet
Wired voltage
State the island when ordering: we never ship the wrong voltage
Lead time
Immediate from stock; 4 to 6 weeks from Italy for the rest
