Humble Lights

Hello! We’re Humble and we have a fresh take on wireless lighting.

At Humble Lights we wondered why there wasn't a better alternative for candles when it came to creating atmosphere. What if there was a safer, rechargeable light source that could create the same coziness and romance?

The beginnings of Humble go back to 2018 when Jorren Teertstra teamed up with his design buddies from APE Amsterdam. With a love of design and an aversion to cables, they set out to create a modern-day alternative to the ultimate mood lighting: candles. The first lamp quickly became a household favourite, with its long battery life and signature bulb. They named themselves ‘Humble’, after this small and friendly initial design.

We came up with the Humble One and Two, friendly, battery-powered lamps that provides instant warmth and atmosphere to any space.

From our studio in Amsterdam’s Houthavens neighbourhood, we design and develop our lighting in close cooperation with our production partner in China. We both share the same goal: to build lights that last by using only the most resilient components and materials. In case something does break, don’t worry: all our designs are modular and the components can be easily replaced. We subscribe to the philosophy of lighting for life – not for landfill.

We never stop designing and are always on the look out to integrate new technologies into our products. Our products are modular and every part is replaceable without compromising on design and functionality.

We hope you’ll enjoy using our lamps as much as we enjoyed creating them.
