FAQs

Do I need an electrician to install this shade?

No, this is an easy-fit shade designed to be installed directly onto an existing pendant light fitting without the need for electrical work.

What size bulb can I use?

The shade is compatible with standard pendant light fittings. Always refer to the maximum wattage recommendation of your original light fitting.

How do I clean the lampshade?

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Can this be used on a floor lamp?

This shade is specifically designed for ceiling pendant light fittings and is not compatible with lamp bases or floor lamps.

What materials are used in this shade?

The shade is made from a mix of velvet and corduroy fabrics with a golden metallic lining.

What is the diameter of the shade?

The shade has a diameter of 40cm.

Will this shade change the color of the light?

The blue fabric and golden lining will influence the light. When illuminated, it tends to cast a warm and slightly colored glow, rather than a pure white light.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit securely

Ensure you are using it with a standard pendant fitting and bulb holder. Check that the shade is correctly seated on the holder.

Light appears uneven

Check that the bulb is centered within the shade and that the shade itself is hanging straight.

Fabric appears creased

Gently steam the fabric from a distance or use a very low heat setting on an iron on the reverse side, taking extreme care not to damage the material. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
