FAQs
Is this lamp shade suitable for outdoor use?
This lamp shade is designed for indoor use only and should not be exposed to moisture or extreme weather conditions.
What size light bulb should I use?
The shade supports a maximum wattage of 11w. The type of bulb (e.g., LED, incandescent) depends on the lamp holder, but ensure it does not exceed the 11w limit.
Do I need to buy a separate cable and ceiling rose?
Yes, if you intend to use this as a pendant light, you will need to purchase a compatible ceiling rose and cable separately. It is not included with the shade.
Can I use this shade with any lamp base?
Yes, it is suitable for most standard table lamp bases and pendant fittings, thanks to its easy-fit design and included shade reducer ring for compatibility with different holder sizes.
What are the exact dimensions of the shade?
The shade has a height of 20cm, with both the top and bottom diameters measuring 30cm.
How do I clean the faux silk fabric?
Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh cleaning agents.
Troubleshooting
Shade does not fit the lamp holder.
Check if the shade reducer ring needs to be removed or inserted to match your 42mm or 60mm lamp holder size.
Light is not bright enough.
Ensure you are using a bulb that meets the maximum wattage (11w) and consider using a brighter compatible bulb type.
Shade appears crooked.
Gently adjust the shade on the lamp holder to ensure it is seated evenly. Check that the lamp base or pendant fitting is stable.
