Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician. Ensure the ceiling-mounted fixture is secure and the wire flex is adjusted to the desired hanging height. For LED versions, confirm compatibility with your existing dimmer switch if applicable.

Compatibility: The fixture is designed to accommodate specific light source types, as indicated by its variant. Check the specifications for the correct bulb type and wattage if using a non-LED version. The grey finish is versatile and pairs well with neutral or monochrome color palettes.

Care: The hand-blown glass diffuser should be cleaned gently. Always turn off the power at the circuit breaker before cleaning. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the glass. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the glass finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean damp cloth. Ensure the glass is completely dry before restoring power.
