FAQs
What type of lamp is this shade intended for?
This lampshade is specifically designed for floor lamps.
What is the color and pattern of the lampshade?
The lampshade is navy blue with a chevron pattern.
How should I clean the lampshade?
Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Will this shade fit any lamp?
It is designed for floor lamps with a standard harp fitting. Compatibility with other lamp types or specific base dimensions should be verified.
Does the chevron pattern affect light distribution?
The pleated design and chevron pattern work together to diffuse light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere rather than a harsh glare.
What kind of bulbs can I use with this lampshade?
You can use standard bulbs, but always check the maximum wattage recommended for your lamp base to ensure safety and prevent damage to the shade.
Troubleshooting
Lampshade does not sit straight
Check if the lamp's harp is bent or misaligned. Ensure the lampshade is seated correctly on the harp and that the finial is tightened evenly.
Fabric appears creased or misshapen
Gently smooth the fabric with your hands. If creases persist, use a garment steamer on a low setting, holding it at a distance from the fabric, and allow it to dry completely.
Light seems too dim
Consider using a higher wattage bulb, ensuring it does not exceed the maximum recommended wattage for your lamp base and the lampshade material. A brighter bulb will result in more light diffusion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This lampshade is designed to be fitted onto a standard floor lamp harp and finial system. Ensure the lamp's existing harp is securely attached. Gently place the lampshade onto the harp, ensuring it sits level. Secure it with the existing finial by screwing it onto the harp's threaded top.
Compatibility: Primarily designed for floor lamps. Verify the dimensions and fitting type match your floor lamp base. It is intended for use with standard lamp sockets and bulbs, though check the maximum wattage recommended by your lamp's manufacturer to avoid overheating the shade.
Care: To maintain its appearance, dust the lampshade regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster. For more persistent marks, use a slightly damp cloth, being careful not to saturate the fabric. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material and the pleating. Always ensure the shade is completely dry before reattaching it to the lamp.
