What is the maximum wattage bulb I can use?

Will a smart bulb work with this shade?

Troubleshooting

The shade feels loose on the light fitting.

Ensure the shade ring is tightened completely against the gallery of the pendant or lamp base.

The light is too harsh or produces a glare.

Switch to a lower-lumen bulb or a 'warm white' LED bulb to better complement the gold interior.

The shade does not fit the bulb size.

Check the bulb length against the 20cm height constraint; you may need a shorter globe or candle-style bulb.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Esme shade is straightforward. Simply unscrew the existing shade ring from your current light fitting, slide the new Esme shade into place, and re-secure the ring. The shade includes adaptors to ensure it fits both B22 BC and E27 ES sockets. To keep the leopard print velvet looking its best, use a soft, dry cloth or a gentle lint roller to remove dust periodically. Do not use chemical cleaners on the velvet, as this may alter the texture or colour. When selecting a bulb, ensure the total length of the bulb does not exceed the internal dimensions of the shade to prevent glare and ensure the lamp looks balanced.
