FAQs

What type of bulb should I use with this shade?

It is recommended to use LED bulbs for energy efficiency and lower heat output, which is safer for fabric shades. Always check the maximum wattage recommendation for your specific lamp base or pendant fitting, and ensure the bulb does not exceed this limit. A bulb with a warmer color temperature (e.g., 2700K) will enhance the terracotta hue.

Can I use this shade outdoors?

No, this lampshade is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to moisture and outdoor elements can damage the fabric and structure.

How do I attach this shade to a pendant light cord?

Most pendant cord sets have a fitting that the shade's central ring (often called an 'uno fitter') will screw onto. Ensure your pendant fitting is compatible; some may require a separate shade ring or adapter.

What is the exact color of the shade?

The shade is described as a warm terracotta colorway, designed to add a pop of color and warmth to a room.

Does this product come with a lamp base or cord?

No, this product is the drum shade only. You will need to provide your own compatible lamp base or pendant light fitting.

How fragile is the fabric?

The fabric is generally durable for indoor use but should be handled with care. Avoid excessive force or sharp objects that could tear or snag the material.

Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit lamp base securely.

Verify the type of fitting on your lamp base (e.g., uno fitter, clip-on) and ensure it is compatible with the shade's attachment method. You may need an adapter ring for some uno fitter bases.

Light appears uneven or too dim.

Ensure the light bulb used is appropriate for the shade's intended use and wattage. Consider using a higher lumen bulb or a bulb with a warmer color temperature for a cozier effect. Make sure the bulb is centered within the shade.

Fabric appears wrinkled or creased.

Gently steam the fabric from a distance or use a handheld steamer. Ensure the shade is taut and the steamer is not too close to avoid damaging the material. Alternatively, hang the shade for a few days to allow gravity to smooth out minor creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This product is a lampshade and requires a compatible lamp base or pendant fitting. Ensure the fitting mechanism (e.g., screw-in ring or clip-on) matches your existing lamp base or pendant cord.

Compatibility:

  • Lamp Bases: Compatible with most standard table and floor lamp bases that accept a 30cm drum shade.
  • Pendant Fittings: Can be used with standard pendant light cord sets.

Care:

  • Gently dust the fabric shade regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster.
  • For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring it is not overly wet, and blot gently. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric.
  • Keep away from direct heat sources like exposed bulbs that are too close to the fabric.
