Shade does not fit lamp base
Ensure your lamp base has the correct fitting (e.g., uno fitter or fixed to the stem) and that the shade's internal diameter is compatible. Check the lamp base's specifications.
Uneven light distribution
Confirm that the correct type and wattage of bulb are being used. Ensure the shade is positioned straight on the lamp base. A lower wattage bulb or a shade with a different fabric density might also affect light spread.
Shade appears discolored
This may be due to prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or improper cleaning. Ensure the shade is kept out of direct sunlight and cleaned only with recommended methods.
