Quasar portable lamp - Emerald green

A contraction of ‘quasi-stellar’, the Quasar portable lamp lights up your world with its three different hues (warm, neutral, and cold white). In scientific terminology, a Quasar is a star-like body that is considered to be the brightest of all. Its circular appearance and its light properties inspired Samy Rio and Petite Friture as they worked on their first wireless lamp.

Quasar is a cordless lamp with a sleek, fun style. Built using LED technology, this lamp guarantees bright, sustainable, and environmentally friendly lighting. Equipped with a dimmer that can be set to three different intensities, Quasar adapts to whatever mood you are seeking to create. Its long-lasting battery can last up to 12 hours non-stop between charges.

Samy Rio

Based in Arles, Samy Rio brings craftsmanship to industrial design as a means of improving the quality of his designs while maintaining a keen handle of the countless sustainable pieces he produces. Hand-made designs and industrial processes are often seen as being opposing yet interdependent, yet in bringing the two together, the young designer has breathed new life into neglected traditions of craftsmanship while curbing the pull of mass production. Samy Rio taps into his training in cabinetmaking and industrial design to foster his own hybrid view of creation and put it to the test.

For the past five years, the ENSCI-Les Ateliers graduate has produced a prolific body of work with ingenious takes on ways to use bamboo, glass, ceramics, and, more recently, invasive plants. Far from stopping with the initial output of his research, Samy Rio then applies his findings to the design of new materials and products. Simple and sleek in appearance, Samy Rio’s pieces question the role design plays in exploring the theoretical underpinnings of sustainable practices by combining materials and processes

Samy Rio won the 2015 Villa Noailles Design Parade award. The award paved the way for Samy Rio to then embark on a series of prestigious residencies – such as Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto and the NTCRI in Taiwan – and to collaborate with the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, the CIRVA (International Centre of Glass and Plastic Arts), and the Galerie kreo. Through these different experiences working with glass, ceramics, wood, and bamboo, he has continued to explore the interactions between craftsmanship and industry, tradition and new tools, as a means of analysing the ways we produce objects as much as the objects themselves.

A functional and versatile portable lamp


Functional, the Quasar portable lamp can be used both inside and outside. However, it is advisable not to leave the Quasar lamp exposed to UV light for a long time. Its look and the materials used to make it have all been carefully considered to guarantee a quality product with optimal use.


Quasar has been designed with resistant materials of which at least 20% are recycled (e.g., anodized aluminium or ABS).


Its IP54 grade waterproofing protects it against splashes and dust ingression. 


The portable lamp is also equipped with a solid polyester rope, which is both mould-proof and UV-resistant. It can therefore be hung outdoors in a tree or from a pergola. These features make Quasar a truly versatile lamp.
