FAQs

What size bulb can I use with this shade?

The shade itself does not dictate the bulb size, but it is compatible with most standard bulb bases (e.g., E27, B22) depending on your existing light fitting. Always adhere to the maximum wattage recommended for your lamp base or pendant fixture, and consider using energy-efficient bulbs.

Does this come with a lamp base or cord?

No, this product is a lampshade only. It is designed to be used with an existing lamp base or ceiling pendant fitting.

What are the dimensions of the shade?

The shade has a diameter of 20cm at its widest point.

How do I clean the shade?

Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use this shade on an outdoor light fitting?

This shade is intended for indoor use only. It is not designed to withstand outdoor elements.

What is the material of the shade?

The product description indicates it is a simple shade, typically made from fabric or a similar material stretched over a frame.

Will this shade fit any lamp?

It is designed to fit most standard table lamps, floor lamps, and ceiling pendants. However, always check compatibility with your specific fixture's attachment mechanism.

Troubleshooting

Shade doesn't fit securely

Check that the shade is correctly aligned with the lamp holder or fitting. Ensure any retaining ring or mechanism is properly tightened.

Shade appears crooked

Gently adjust the shade to ensure it is centered on the fitting. Some fittings may require a small shim or adjustment for a perfectly level hang.

Light is too dim or too bright

This is dependent on the bulb used. Replace the current bulb with one of a higher or lower wattage (within the fixture's maximum limit) or a different lumen output as needed.
