FAQs
What type of light bulb should I use?
The lamp is compatible with standard screw-in bulbs (e.g., E27 base). Please refer to the fixture's specifications for maximum wattage. Using an LED bulb is recommended for energy efficiency and longevity.
How long is the power cable?
The lamp comes with a 1.5-meter (approximately 5 feet) braided power cable.
Can I use this lamp outdoors?
No, this table lamp is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to moisture and the elements can damage the rattan base and electrical components.
How do I clean the rattan base?
Wipe the rattan base with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture. Ensure it is thoroughly dry after cleaning.
Is the light bulb included?
No, the light bulb is not included with the lamp. You will need to purchase a compatible bulb separately.
What is the colour of the lamp?
The lamp is described as 'White' in its colour family, featuring an ivory scallop shade and a natural rattan base.
Does the lamp have a dimmer function?
The lamp itself does not have a built-in dimmer. However, if used with a compatible dimmer switch and bulb, dimming may be possible.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on.
Ensure the lamp is securely plugged into a working power outlet. Check that the light bulb is screwed in correctly and is not burnt out. Try a different, known-working light bulb. Verify the inline switch is in the 'on' position.
Flickering light.
Check if the light bulb is loose in the socket and tighten it. If the bulb is old, it may need replacing. Ensure the power connection is stable and not experiencing fluctuations.
Rattan base appears dry or brittle.
This can happen in very dry environments. Consider using a rattan-specific conditioning product, following the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid placing the lamp in direct sunlight or near heat sources, which can exacerbate dryness.
Scalloped shade is dusty and difficult to clean.
Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low suction for gentle dust removal. For persistent dust, a soft, dry cloth or a light dusting brush is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
