Product Information

Full details

The Litecraft Dominic Easy To Fit Shade in Glossy Black is designed for individuals looking to quickly and affordably update their home's interior lighting. Its primary benefit is the immediate visual impact it provides with its sculptural, high-shine finish and natural bamboo edge, offering a striking focal point. A potential caveat is that it requires a separate bulb, which is not included. This shade is a non-electric, easy-fit solution that attaches to an existing ceiling light fitting, making it ideal for renters or those seeking a hassle-free upgrade to their hallways, bedrooms, or dining areas.

FAQs

What type of bulb do I need?

You will need one bulb (not included). The maximum recommended wattage is 10W. LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency and to stay within the wattage limit.

Is this shade suitable for a sloped ceiling?

This is an easy-fit shade designed for standard flat pendant fittings. It is not designed for sloped ceilings.

How do I clean the glossy black surface?

Use a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I install this myself, or do I need an electrician?

This is an 'Easy To Fit' shade, meaning it is designed to be installed by the user onto an existing pendant light fitting without the need for an electrician.

What are the dimensions of the shade?

The shade has a diameter of approximately 30 cm and a height of approximately 18.5 cm.

What is the weight of the shade?

The shade weighs approximately 0.6 kg (1.32 lbs).

Is the bamboo edge treated or sealed?

The product description does not specify if the bamboo edge is treated or sealed. It is recommended to clean it gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit securely

Ensure the retaining ring on the bulb holder is properly aligned and tightened. Check that the shade's internal diameter is compatible with your bulb holder.

Light is not turning on

Verify that the power is on at the wall switch. Check that the bulb is correctly screwed into the holder and is not burnt out. Ensure the shade is not obstructing the bulb connection.

Glossy finish appears dull or scratched

Clean gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Minor surface scuffs may be less noticeable once a bulb is installed and light is cast.

Bamboo edge is dusty

Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to gently remove dust from the bamboo. For deeper cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
