FAQs
What size bulb should I use?
The Rufus Paper Ball Shade does not come with a bulb. You will need to purchase one separately. It is compatible with standard screw-in bulbs. We recommend using an LED bulb for energy efficiency and longevity. Please check the maximum recommended wattage for your existing pendant fitting.
How large is the Rufus Paper Ball Shade?
The shade has a diameter of 100cm (H100xDia100 cm), making it a very large and impactful lighting accessory.
Is installation difficult?
It is designed as an 'easy-fit' pendant shade, meaning it should attach to most standard pendant light fittings without complex wiring. However, ensure you have a compatible harp or support structure.
What is the material of the shade?
The shade is made from high-quality white paper with a horizontal band structure.
How do I clean the paper shade?
Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth. For minor marks, use a slightly damp, well-wrung-out cloth. Avoid using any abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.
Does it come with the full pendant fitting or just the shade?
This product is the shade only. It is designed to fit onto an existing pendant light fitting.
What is the colour of the shade?
The shade is white.
Troubleshooting
Shade does not fit securely
Ensure the internal wire harp fitting is correctly aligned with your existing pendant light fixture's support structure. Check that no wires or components are obstructing the fit.
Light appears uneven
Verify that the bulb is centered within the shade. A slightly off-center bulb can cause uneven light distribution. Ensure the bulb wattage does not exceed the fixture's recommendation.
Paper material feels delicate
Handle the shade with care during installation and cleaning. Avoid applying excessive pressure. Regular, gentle dusting is recommended over infrequent deep cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Rufus Paper Ball Shade is designed as an easy-fit accessory for existing pendant light fittings. Simply ensure your current fitting has a compatible harp or frame structure to support the shade's internal wire fitting. The shade requires one standard light bulb (not included); we recommend using an LED bulb for energy efficiency and reduced heat. To clean, gently dust with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster. For any smudges, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring it is wrung out well, and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which could damage the paper material.
