Troubleshooting
Lampshade doesn't fit the bulb holder
Ensure you are using the correct base size (E27) or have inserted the supplied reducer ring for E14, B22, or E26 fittings. Check that the shade is screwed on straight.
Shade feels loose
Gently tighten the shade onto the bulb holder. If it continues to be loose, there might be an issue with the bulb holder itself, which may require professional inspection.
Uneven light distribution
The cone shape is designed to direct light. For a wider spread, consider the wattage and type of bulb used. Ensure the shade is positioned correctly over the bulb.
Finish is damaged
Handle with care during installation. For minor scuffs, try a very mild furniture polish on a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
