The Foscarini Cri Cri Outdoor Portable Light, designed by Studio Natural, is a compact collapsible lantern conceived for portable outdoor use. Its considered form and playful detail suit terraces, patios, campsites and alfresco dining where soft, even ambience is required.

The lamp uses an accordion-style bellows: a translucent tiered body compresses for storage and extends to provide a taller diffuser in use. The top cap is a rigid module with a recessed control and the lantern is available in Red and Green finishes.

Construction pairs a durable, weatherproof diffuser with a rigid top cap and a thin loop handle for carrying or hanging. A wide, flat base keeps the lantern steady on tables or the ground, and the product is IP65-rated for outdoor exposure.

Light is delivered by an internal source that is diffused through the translucent body, creating a soft ambient glow suited to mood and general illumination rather than task lighting. The recessed circular control provides tactile on/off and mode selection.

The Cri Cri is rechargeable and cordless for flexible placement; battery runtime and charging details are not specified in the supplied data. The fitting carries a one-year manufacturer warranty and requires no permanent wiring.

At Lighting Design Online we frame this portable lantern as a design-led choice for creating balanced outdoor ambience. We highlight its durable, project-friendly attributes and offer clear specification advice so you get a reliable, considered result that sits comfortably within a wider lighting scheme.
