FAQs
Does this shade come with the lamp base?
No, this is a replacement shade only; the lamp base and hardware must be purchased separately.
What is the best way to clean the fabric?
Use a lint roller or a dry, soft cloth. Avoid moisture and abrasive chemicals.
Can I use a high-wattage bulb with this shade?
It is recommended to use energy-efficient LED bulbs to prevent heat accumulation that could potentially damage the fabric.
Will this fit a standard floor lamp?
Yes, its 40cm diameter is compatible with most standard lamp harps and floor lamp fittings.
Is the cream color translucent?
The cream fabric is designed to be slightly translucent to allow for warm light diffusion while still obscuring the bulb.
Troubleshooting
The lamp shade appears crooked.
Check that the lamp harp is centered and that the shade is resting securely on the washer or fitter.
Light is unevenly distributed.
Ensure the light bulb is positioned vertically and centered within the drum.
Fabric has minor surface dust.
Use a dry microfiber cloth or a lint roller to gently lift dust without pressing it into the cream fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward as the shade is designed for standard universal lamp fittings. To attach, align the shade center ring with your existing lamp harp and secure it with the provided finial. Regarding compatibility, the 40cm diameter works best on medium-to-large table lamps or slim floor lamps. For care, keep the shade away from direct, high-heat sources to prevent fabric discoloration or structural warping. To clean, use a gentle lint roller or a soft-bristled brush to remove dust buildup. Avoid using water or household cleaners, as these may damage the fabric finish or cause water spotting.
