Available in 3 sizes (S, M, L) and 2 wood finishes (dark Walnut or light Maple), with 8 hours of battery life. Micro-USB rechargeable. 100% recyclable interior materials. Free delivery.

When a book becomes light
The Librium is inspired by an
emblematic contemporary design concept that reinterprets the most meaningful everyday object — the book — to create a luminous experience. Closed, it is a carefully bound book made of genuine wood, which one would not hesitate to place on the coffee table of a literary salon or the console of a refined bedroom.
Gradually opened, its translucent pages reveal their internal LED light.
Fully unfurled to 360°, the front and back covers meet magnetically to form a perfect luminous cylinder that can be placed vertically or hung. It is the gesture of reading transformed into a luminous gesture — an object that celebrates attachment to books while offering an unprecedented practical function.
3 modes of use to discover
The Librium is not just a lamp — it's an object with three distinct uses. Closed book mode: decorative object on a shelf, coffee table, or bookcase, blending in with your real books until activated. Half-open mode (90 to 180°): bedside, desk, or console lamp, casting a soft, directional light like a fan. 360° cylinder mode: full lantern, can be placed vertically or hung by its cord, diffusing 360° light like a permanent candle. Three objects in one, depending on your mood.

Usage tip. To fully enjoy your Librium, switch modes according to your needs: closed during the day as a decorative object, half-open in the evening as a reading or bedside lamp, and in 360° cylinder mode for an exceptional atmosphere during an evening or as a soft night light. To preserve the battery, recharge before it fully discharges. A full recharge generally takes a few hours with a standard USB adapter.
Librium or another portable lamp from the range? The Librium is our only book-shaped light, designed to combine literary decoration with luminous functionality. Compared to the HENG Balance SPIRIT (cordless table lamp with dimmer), the Librium stands out for its total compactness (2.5 cm thick when closed), its versatility of uses (book/lamp/lantern), and its bookish aesthetic. It's an object for literature lovers, travelers, nocturnal readers — as well as a strong symbolic gift for those who love books.

Wood and recharging precautions. The Librium is made of genuine wood: avoid prolonged humidity, direct sun exposure, and intense heat sources that could deform or discolor the material. The USB wall adapter is not included — use an adapter from your home (smartphone charger) or acquire a standard 5V USB adapter. To preserve battery life in the long term, avoid repeated full discharges and store with a partial charge if you do not use it for several weeks.

The L format becomes a true decorative piece for a desk or private library. The Dark Walnut finish brings a heritage elegance, while the Light Maple offers a sleek Scandinavian freshness.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Librium deploy 360°?
The Librium's cover is equipped with discreet magnets on its front and back edges. You gradually open the book as you would any bound volume, until the two covers are back to back. The magnets meet and lock by magnetic contact, forming a perfect cylinder. You can also stop at any intermediate angle (90°, 180°, 270°) to adjust the light diffusion according to your current needs.
Which size should I choose based on my use?
The S format (10 × 8 cm) is ultra-portable: ideal for travel, bedside tables, or as a compact night light. The M format (14.7 × 11 cm) is the most versatile: bedside reading, desk lamp, living room ambiance. The L format (21.5 × 17 cm) becomes a true decorative piece and offers the largest luminous surface — ideal as main ambient lighting in a bedroom, a literary living room, or a private library. The thickness remains 2.5 cm across all formats.
What is the difference between Walnut and Maple finishes?
Dark Walnut is a wood with deep chocolate tones and a pronounced dark grain — it brings a heritage elegance that matches classic, warm contemporary, or Art Deco decors. Light Maple is a wood with honey to golden wheat tones and a soft, bright grain — it brings a sleek Scandinavian freshness that complements Japandi, minimalist, or Nordic decors. Both essences are genuine varnished wood that patinas beautifully over time.
How long does the battery last?
The integrated battery offers 8 hours of autonomy with continuous use at full power. This comfortably covers an evening of reading, a full night as a night light, or several days of occasional use. To preserve battery longevity in the long term, avoid systematic full discharges and store the Librium with a partial charge (40-60%) if you plan not to use it for several weeks.
How is it recharged?
Recharging is done via the supplied micro-USB cable, to be connected to any USB wall adapter (smartphone charger, integrated USB socket, power bank). The USB wall adapter is not included — most households already have one. A full recharge generally takes a few hours with a standard 5V adapter. You can use the Librium while recharging if necessary.
Can the Librium be suspended?
Yes, in 360° cylinder mode, the Librium usually has a thin cord or attachment that allows it to be suspended like a lantern. You can hang it from a ceiling hook, an indoor tree branch, a wall shelf, or place it vertically on a table like a light cylinder. This versatility makes it an ideal object for evening ambiances, sheltered patios, or meditation corners.
Is the Librium really eco-friendly?
The Librium prioritizes an eco-responsible approach on two levels. Materials: Noble real wood (Walnut or Maple) that lasts over time and acquires a beautiful patina, with no visible plastics; the internal materials are 100% recyclable. Usage: Modern LED consumes very little energy, and the battery allows for off-grid use. Like any electronic object, its end-of-life requires disposal in a suitable recycling channel — the wood material remains valuable.
