Product Information

Full details

This black and off-white chevron patterned lamp shade from Happy Homewares is designed for individuals seeking a modern, subtly textured accent for their living spaces, bedrooms, or home offices. Its key benefit lies in its versatile design, accommodating both pendant and standard lamp bases with ease. A potential caveat to note is that the ceiling rose and cable are not included, and the maximum wattage is limited to 11w. Key features include a woven jacquard-effect fabric, a luxurious black satin shimmer lining, and a reversible gimbal for flexible fitting.

FAQs

What is included with the lamp shade?

The product includes the lamp shade itself and a shade reducer ring. The ceiling rose, pendant cable, lamp base, and light bulb are sold separately.

Can I use this shade with any type of light bulb?

You can use various bulb types (incandescent, LED, CFL) as long as they do not exceed the maximum 11w wattage. LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency and longevity.

How do I clean the lamp shade?

Dust the shade regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.

What are the exact dimensions of the shade?

The lamp shade has a height of 20cm and both the top and bottom diameters are 30cm.

Will this shade fit a standard E27 (ES) lamp holder?

Yes, the shade comes with a shade reducer ring that allows it to fit E27/ES, E14/SES, and B22/BC lamp holders.

Can I use this shade for a pendant light fitting?

Yes, the shade features a reversible gimbal, making it suitable for both pendant light fittings and table/floor lamps.

What is the pattern on the shade?

The shade features a modern graphic-edged black and off-white chevron (zigzag) pattern.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit the lamp base.

Ensure you are using the correct fitting for your lamp base. Try attaching the shade using the reversible gimbal in the opposite orientation, or use the provided shade reducer ring for smaller bulb holders (B22/BC, E14/SES, E27/ES).

Shade wobbles or feels insecure.

Check if the lamp's retaining ring (if applicable) is properly tightened or if the gimbal is correctly seated over the bulb holder. Ensure the shade reducer ring is used if necessary for a snug fit.

Light output seems dim.

Verify that the bulb used is within the 11w maximum wattage limit. Consider using a higher lumen LED bulb if more light is desired, while staying within the wattage restriction. The satin lining can also slightly diffuse light.

Fabric appears creased upon arrival.

Allow the shade to hang for a few hours; minor creases from packaging often fall out. For stubborn creases, a very low-heat steam (held at a distance) might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Modern and stylish chevron design.
  • Versatile for use on pendant lights or table/floor lamps.
  • Accommodates multiple bulb base types with the included reducer ring.
  • Adds subtle texture and a luxurious feel with its jacquard fabric and satin lining.
  • Easy to integrate into various contemporary room settings.

Cons

  • Ceiling rose and cable are not included.
  • Maximum wattage is limited to 11w.
  • Light bulb is not included.
  • Requires a separate lamp base or pendant fitting.
  • Pattern is monochromatic, which might not suit all color schemes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. If using as a pendant shade, ensure you have a compatible pendant cable kit (sold separately).
  2. If using on a table or floor lamp, ensure the lamp base has a suitable fitting.
  3. The shade can be attached using its reversible gimbal. For pendant fittings, it typically slides over the bulb holder.
  4. For standard lamp bases, the gimbal usually sits over the bulb holder and secures with the lamp's own retaining ring or a provided bulb clip (check lamp base fittings).
  5. Insert the shade reducer ring if needed to ensure a snug fit on smaller bulb holders (E14/SES, B22/BC).
  6. Install a compatible light bulb (max 11w) and ensure it is screwed in securely.

Compatibility:

  • Bulb Bases: B22/BC, E14/SES, E27/ES (with shade reducer ring).
  • Light Source: Suitable for pendant cables and table/floor lamps.
  • Wattage: Maximum 11 watts.

Care:

  • Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
  • For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the fabric and lining.
