The Tall Poppy takes its cue from nature, standing high on a slender stem like a flower reaching for the light. It is cast from durable diecast zinc alloy, with a subtle fluted texture that improves grip and catches the light along its length. At the top, a broad disc casts a soft, glare-free pool of light downward onto the table, so the glow lands where it is wanted without a bright source in the eye.

Tall Poppy
The Tall Poppy takes its cue from nature, standing high on a slender stem like a flower reaching for the light. Cast from durable diecast zinc alloy with a subtle fluted texture, it casts a soft, glare-free pool of light downward onto the table from a broad disc top, so the glow lands where it is wanted without a bright source in the eye.
It comes in six finishes on the same form: painted satin black, electroplated satin silver, satin brass and satin bronze, a clean gloss white, and the iridescent Reef, a physical vapour deposition finish that shifts through peacock tones. Its 2017 design was recognised with the Good Design Award, an IIDA HD Expo Product Design Award and a darc award.
The Satin Black ships with NEOZ's N1 engine and is compatible with the Cordless Lamp Lock; the other finishes currently ship with the UNO engine and are moving to N1 over time. Both engines give the same warm white light. Rated IP52, the Tall Poppy suits indoor and covered settings, and like every NEOZ lamp it is fully serviceable, with every part user replaceable.
All NEOZ products are shipped in a presentation box and include your NEOZ lamp, an N1 Charging Base and User Guide. Our N1 Charging Base includes wall plugs for AU, UK, EU and USA as standard.

Built to be kept
Buy once, and keep it for years
Every NEOZ lamp is built around our light engine and made to be serviced, not discarded. Move the electronics between bodies, or replace a single worn part, and the lamp you buy today stays with you for years.
Replaceable parts
Fix the part, not the lamp
Battery, light source, diffuser and body are each replaceable on their own. Damage one element and you repair just that part, never the whole lamp.
MODULAR BY DESIGN
Change the body, keep the engine
The NEOZ light engine is independent of the body and lifts out to move between them, the heart of our modular design. Restyle to a new look, or replace a damaged body, while keeping the electronics you already own.
Service and repair
Looked after, wherever you are
Our service centre is in Sydney, and we accept lamps back from anywhere in the world for assessment and repair. More often we diagnose remotely and send the right parts with video instructions, backed by our online help centre, so your lamps keep working wherever they are.
Commercial grade
Made for the floor
Engineered for nightly use in five-star service, with all-day battery life, fast charging and charging solutions that scale from a single base to a 48-lamp station. Backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty, and fully serviceable for the long term.
