FAQs
Does this set include the light bulbs?
No, the set includes the shades only. You will need to purchase two 42W Max E27 ES bulbs separately.
Can I use these shades with a ceiling fan light kit?
These are designed for standard pendant light fittings. Please check that your ceiling fan light kit uses a standard E27 pendant cable fitting before purchase.
Are these shades suitable for bathrooms?
These shades are intended for general indoor use. They are not rated for wet or damp locations, so they should not be installed in bathrooms or areas with high humidity.
What is the maximum bulb wattage allowed?
The shades are rated for a maximum of 42W. Using a higher wattage bulb may cause the shade to overheat.
Do I need an electrician to install these?
No, these are 'easy-fit' shades that attach to your existing pendant cable. No wiring or electrical work is required.
Troubleshooting
Shade appears crooked when hung
Check that the pendant cable is straight and the shade ring is screwed on evenly to the thread of the lamp holder.
Bulb is too long for the shade
The Bletch shade is 18 cm high; if your bulb protrudes, replace the bulb with a shorter 'golf ball' or 'candle' style LED equivalent that fits within the shade's dimensions.
Light flickering while dimmed
Ensure you are using a bulb explicitly rated as 'dimmable' and that your wall dimmer switch is compatible with LED load requirements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply remove the shade ring from your existing pendant fitting, slide the Bletch shade over the gallery, and secure it back in place with the ring. Ensure your fixture uses an E27 (ES) lamp holder.
For care and maintenance, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges. Instead, dust the shade regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to prevent dirt buildup. If the shade requires a deeper clean, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, but ensure the shade is completely dry before reattaching it to the light fitting. Always confirm that your chosen bulb does not exceed 42W to prevent heat damage to the shade material.
