FAQs

Does this lamp shade come with a light bulb?

No, the light bulb is not included with the lamp shade. You will need to purchase a bulb separately.

Can I use this shade on a table lamp and a pendant light?

Yes, absolutely! The lamp shade is designed with a reversible gimbal, allowing it to be used as both a pendant shade (hanging) and a table or floor lamp shade (standing upright).

What bulb fittings is this shade compatible with?

The shade is compatible with most common light fittings: B22/BC, E14/SES, and E27/ES. It comes with a shade reducer ring to accommodate different sizes.

What is the maximum wattage bulb I can use?

The maximum wattage allowed for a light bulb in this shade is 60 watts.

How do I clean the velvet and tassels?

For daily maintenance, gently dust with a soft brush or microfiber cloth. For any spots, dab lightly with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals or excessive moisture. Handle tassels with care to prevent tangling.

What are the dimensions of the lamp shade?

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

Is the green color exactly as pictured?

The color is described as 'dark emerald forest green'. While efforts are made for accurate representation, actual color may vary slightly due to individual screen settings and lighting conditions in your home.

Troubleshooting

Shade doesn't fit my lamp base/pendant.

Check if you have used the correct side of the reversible gimbal. Ensure the shade reducer ring is either installed or removed as needed for your specific fitting (B22/BC, E14/SES usually need it, E27/ES often does not).

Tassels appear tangled or creased.

Gently straighten tassels by hand. For persistent creases, very lightly steam them from a distance, being careful not to soak the fabric. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first.

Light appears too dim or too bright.

Ensure the light bulb wattage does not exceed the maximum allowed 60W. For dimness, try a higher wattage bulb within the limit. For brightness, consider a lower wattage or a bulb with a warmer color temperature to suit your preference.
