Product Information

Full details

The Kartell Light Air Transparent Table Lamp is designed for individuals seeking to add a modern, artistic, and visually intriguing element to their home decor. Its primary benefit is creating a dramatic optical illusion of a floating lampshade, adding a touch of magic and sophistication to any room. A potential caveat is its reliance on a specific aesthetic and the need for a suitable space to showcase its unique design. This lamp features an 'illusionist' design, a transparent lampshade suspended above an opaque base, crafted from durable thermoplastic, and designed by Eugeni Quitllet.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the lamp and a working electrical outlet. Check if the light bulb is correctly installed and functional. Try a different light bulb if possible.

Flickering light

This could indicate a loose bulb connection or an issue with the bulb itself. Ensure the bulb is screwed in tightly. If the problem persists, try a new, compatible light bulb.

Base is unstable

Verify that the lamp is placed on a flat, level surface. Ensure all components of the base are securely fitted together, if applicable.

Smudges or dust on transparent shade

Gently wipe the shade with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth (well wrung out) and immediately dry with a separate soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Gently insert the transparent lampshade onto the frame extending from the base. Connect the power cord to a compatible electrical outlet.

For stubborn marks on the plastic, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring it is well wrung out, and then dry immediately with a separate soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the thermoplastic material and the finish. When cleaning, always unplug the lamp from the power source.
