Elizabeth Two Tier Black Trim Shade - Joanna Hope - White

Use a bulb appropriate for your lamp's maximum wattage. The shade's linen material diffuses light, so a standard incandescent, LED, or CFL bulb can be used, with brightness determined by wattage and lumen output.

Measure the diameter of your existing lampshade at its widest point. This shade is 30cm. You can also measure the height of your lamp base and compare it to the desired shade height for visual balance.

The black trim is an integrated part of the shade's design and is not intended to be removed.

While primarily designed for table lamps, the 30cm size could be suitable for a smaller floor lamp, depending on the overall proportions of the lamp base and stand.

Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's specific warranty information, as this is not provided in the product details.

The two tiers create a layered effect that helps to direct light downwards and outwards, providing both ambient and functional illumination.

Ensure the shade is correctly seated on the bulb holder and that the retaining ring or harp is securely tightened. Check that the lamp base is stable.

Gently iron the fabric on a low heat setting from the inside of the shade, using a pressing cloth to protect the linen. Alternatively, allow the shade to hang for a few days; gravity may help reduce minor creases.

Consider using a brighter wattage bulb (within the lamp's maximum recommended wattage) or a bulb with a higher lumen output. The linen fabric naturally diffuses light, so a brighter bulb can compensate.
