FAQs

What is the maximum wattage this lampshade can support?

The maximum wattage allowed for this lampshade is 11w.

Does the lamp shade come with a light bulb?

No, the light bulb is not included and must be purchased separately.

Can I use this shade for both pendant lights and table lamps?

Yes, it features a reversible gimbal and a shade reducer ring, making it suitable for both hanging pendant lights and standard table/floor lamp bases.

What type of bulb fittings is it compatible with?

It is compatible with B22/BC, E14/SES, and E27/ES fittings.

How do I clean the velvet fabric?

Gently wipe the velvet fabric with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

What are the dimensions of the lampshade?

The dimensions are: Height - 19cm (excluding tassels), Top diameter - 10cm, Bottom diameter - 30cm.

Is the sky blue color consistent across the shade and tassels?

Yes, the shade features soft velvet fabric in elegant sky blue with matching color decorative lower hanging tassels.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit the lamp base.

Utilize the included shade reducer ring. Ensure the shade's fitting is correctly aligned with the lamp's bulb holder. The reversible gimbal can also be adjusted.

Light is too dim.

Confirm the bulb wattage is within the 11w limit. Consider using a higher lumen (but still 11w or less) bulb. This shade is designed for ambient rather than bright task lighting.

Tassels are tangled or misshapen.

Gently tease the tassels with your fingers to separate them. If necessary, a very low-heat iron held at a distance or steaming can help reshape them, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
