Ropelle is born from Maanta with a clear idea: to bring the atmosphere of a Mediterranean summer evening into your garden. The olefin polypropylene rope is not decoration — it is a screen that transforms light into a radial pattern of warm shadows. The solar panel makes it independent. The dusk sensor makes it smart. The iron coating makes it resistant to sun, rain and salt air. No cables to bury, no electrician to call: just light, where and when you need it.
Ropelle is born from Maanta with a clear idea: to bring the atmosphere of a Mediterranean summer evening into your garden.

The iron coating makes it resistant to sun, rain and salt air. No cables to bury, no electrician to call: just light, where and when you need it.
The 15 cm diameter panel captures solar energy during the day and converts it into light in the evening. No energy costs, no environmental impact. If the sky is overcast, the USB-C port allows a full recharge in 4 hours.
You don't need to remember to turn it on or off. The sensor detects the drop in natural light and activates Ropelle automatically. In the morning, when daylight returns, it switches off and begins charging again. Every day, without any intervention on your part.
IP65 means total dust protection and resistance to water jets from any direction. Ropelle stays in place all year round, with no need to bring it inside. A superior level compared to competitors that stop at IP44.
The rope is not merely aesthetic: it is made of olefin polypropylene, a synthetic fibre that is UV-resistant, mould-resistant, quick-drying and 100% recyclable. When Ropelle switches on, the woven texture projects a radial pattern of warm shadows onto surrounding surfaces. A scenic effect that truly decorates.
Adjust the light intensity without leaving your seat. The remote control lets you choose your preferred brightness: more intense for dinner, softer for after dinner. Manual on and off always at your fingertips.
Iron coating with a specific treatment for outdoor use: resistant to sun, rain and salt air without fading. Five shades inspired by the Mediterranean — Terracotta, Dark Blue, Pebble Grey, Olive Beige and Olive — that complement your spaces and other Maanta products.

Ropelle is a 160 cm outdoor solar lamp, designed by the Maanta design centre. It charges in the sun during the day and automatically lights up your garden in the evening, thanks to its dusk sensor. The braided polypropylene olefin rope creates a refined play of light and shadow, enhancing your space even before it switches on—perfect for stylish outdoor living in British gardens.
Of course. Ropelle features an IP65 rating, making it more than suitable for outdoor use, while its design makes it perfect as a decorative lamp in a living room, hallway or reading corner. It fits beautifully into British homes and outdoor living spaces. Indoors, you can recharge it via USB-C.
Five colours from the exclusive Maanta palette: Terracotta, Dark Blue, Pebble Grey, Olive Beige and Olive. All feature a specialist outdoor coating for iron, designed to withstand sun, rain and salt air without fading over time—perfect for enhancing British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
Ropelle is a 160 cm tall floor lamp with a solar panel and dusk sensor. Mini Ropelle is a compact table lamp (50 cm) with USB-C charging, ideal for tables, bedside units and windowsills. Both are IP65 rated and share the same design, featuring an olefin polypropylene rope finish.
The colours in the Ropelle palette are the same as Marinea, Mini Ropelle and the other products in the Maanta lighting range. You can create lighting compositions with different heights and types while maintaining colour consistency, perfect for elegant outdoor living in British gardens.
Ropelle is designed by the Maanta design centre in Gambellara, Veneto. Every detail—from the curve of the rope to the angle of the light, from the colours to the silhouette—is created by our Italian design team. Crafted with true Made in Italy expertise, it brings refined style and performance to British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
IP65 is an international protection rating. The 6 means complete protection against dust. The 5 means resistance to water jets from any direction. In practice: Ropelle can stay outdoors all year round—through rain, hail, pool splashes and dust—without damage, making it ideal for British gardens and outdoor living spaces. Many outdoor lamps only reach IP44, which protects against light splashes only.
Olefin is a synthetic fibre based on polypropylene, widely used in high-end outdoor furnishings. It resists UV rays without fading, does not develop mould, dries quickly, and is easy to clean. It is also 100% recyclable, with a low environmental impact production process—ideal for British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
Ropelle emits 70 lumens at 2700K: a warm, soft, enveloping light, comparable to the golden glow of a sunset. It’s not designed to provide bright illumination, but to create atmosphere — the perfect light for an outdoor dinner, an evening read, or drinks on your terrace, ideal for British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
With a full charge, Ropelle provides 10–12 hours of continuous light. In summer, with long sunny days, the solar panel fully recharges it every day. During winter months or on overcast days, you can use the USB-C port as a backup—perfect for keeping your outdoor lighting reliable in British gardens and terraces.
Yes, using the included remote control you can increase or decrease the light intensity. At lower brightness, the battery life extends even further, exceeding 12 hours.
Yes. You can control Ropelle in two ways: automatically with the dusk sensor (it switches on at sunset and off at dawn), or manually with the remote control (you can turn it on and off whenever you like).
The weave of the olefin polypropylene rope acts as a filter: the light passing through the mesh casts a radial pattern of warm shadows on the surrounding surfaces. The effect is striking and changes depending on the angle and distance. It is the distinctive feature of the entire Maanta Rope range, designed to enhance outdoor living spaces such as British gardens and terraces.
The coating on Ropelle iron is specifically formulated for outdoor use. It resists UV rays, rain, and salt air. The colours retain their intensity season after season. As with any outdoor product, we recommend cleaning it periodically with a damp cloth, ensuring long-lasting performance even in British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
It is switched on and off using the included remote control or automatically thanks to the dusk sensor. There is no physical switch on the structure, which helps maintain a clean, streamlined design.
Ropelle arrives practically ready to use. Simply place it wherever you prefer – in your garden, on your terrace, or by the pool – and let it charge in the sun for a few hours before first use, perfect for enhancing British gardens and outdoor living spaces.
No. Ropelle is completely solar-powered and wireless. You don’t need any electrical work, underground cables, or outdoor sockets. You simply place it and it works. It’s one of its key advantages over traditional garden lighting, making it ideal for British gardens.
The solar panel on the top collects natural light during the day. Place Ropelle where it receives at least a few hours of direct sunlight: around 10 hours of exposure ensures a full charge. The panel also works in partially cloudy conditions, with longer charging times.
The 19 mm adapter included in the package provides a stable base for the lamp. It allows you to adjust the installation depending on the surface where you want to place Ropelle, making it suitable for British gardens, terraces and outdoor living spaces.
The powder-coated iron structure provides solid weight and stability. In the event of prolonged strong winds, we recommend moving it to a sheltered position, just as you would with any outdoor lamp of this height in British gardens or outdoor living spaces.
Wipe the iron frame and the rope with a damp cloth. Olefin doesn’t trap dirt and dries quickly. No harsh detergents are needed: water and a soft cloth are enough. Ropelle requires virtually no maintenance, making it ideal for effortless outdoor living in British gardens.
The IP65 protection, outdoor coating and olefin polypropylene rope make it suitable for staying outdoors all year round. To extend its lifespan, you can store it in a covered place during periods when it is not in use.
Ropelle is covered by a 2-year Maanta warranty from the date of purchase. The warranty covers manufacturing defects on every component: structure, solar panel, battery, and sensor.
The lithium battery is built into the lamp and is not designed for user replacement. If you need any assistance, please contact us.
