FAQs

Do I need to wire this shade?

No, this shade is an 'easy fit' model and requires no wiring. It attaches directly to your existing lamp holder or pendant fitting.

What type of bulb should I use?

You should use a maximum 6W LED bulb with either a B22 Bayonet Cap (BC) or E27 Edison Screw (ES) fitting. Ensure the bulb's length is suitable for the shade's dimensions.

Can I use this shade with a dimmer switch?

Yes, the shade is compatible with dimmable bulbs. If paired with a dimmable bulb and a compatible dimmer switch, you can adjust the light intensity.

What are the dimensions of the shade?

The shade has a height of 19cm and a diameter of 28cm at its widest point.

Is this shade suitable for all rooms?

Yes, it is suitable for a wide range of rooms including bedrooms, dining rooms, guest rooms, hallways, kitchens, living rooms, and porches.

Can I use this on a table lamp?

Absolutely. The shade features a reversible gimble, making it suitable for use on both ceiling pendants and table lamps.

How do I clean the shade?

Clean by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For light marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit securely

Check if the reversible gimble is correctly aligned and tightened. Ensure the shade is compatible with your specific lamp holder or pendant fitting type.

Light flickers or doesn't turn on

Verify that the bulb is correctly seated in the holder and is the correct type (LED, 6W Max). Check that the bulb is compatible with the dimmable or smart switch if used.

Shade appears crooked

Adjust the reversible gimble to ensure it is level and securely holding the shade. Ensure the lamp base or pendant fitting itself is stable.

Bulb touches the shade

Ensure you are using a bulb with a length that fits within the shade's dimensions (19cm height). Consider a shorter LED bulb if necessary.
