FAQs
Does this shade come with the electrical cable and ceiling rose?
No, this is an 'easy-fit' shade designed to attach to your existing pendant light fitting.
Can I use a 60W bulb if it is an LED?
The shade is rated for a 40W maximum. Even if an LED uses less power, you must ensure the heat output does not exceed safety guidelines for the shade material.
Is this shade suitable for bathroom use?
This shade is not IP-rated for bathroom zones. It is intended for indoor use in dry areas only.
What is the diameter of the hole where the cable enters?
The shade is designed to fit standard UK B22 and EU E27 pendant suspensions.
Can I spray paint this shade a different color?
We do not recommend modifying the shade, as this may affect the finish and void any applicable warranties.
Troubleshooting
The shade feels loose or wobbly after installation.
Ensure the pendant retaining ring is tightened securely against the internal support structure of the shade.
The bulb hits the sides of the shade.
Verify that your bulb length is within the clearance limits of the 20cm height; consider switching to a shorter 'globe' or 'candle' style LED bulb.
