FAQs

What type of bulb does the Hector Bibendum Wall Light use?

The light uses a standard E27 screw-in bulb. Please refer to the product specifications for the maximum wattage.

Can I choose the colour of the cable?

Is the shade adjustable?

Yes, both the shade and the stem of the Hector Bibendum Wall Light are adjustable to allow for directional lighting.

Do I need an electrician to install this light?

What are the dimensions of the light?

Please refer to the detailed product specifications for exact dimensions.

Is the bone china shade fragile?

Bone china is a delicate material. Handle with care during installation and cleaning to avoid damage.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the bulb is correctly seated and not burned out. Check that the power source is active. For hard-wired versions, confirm connections with a qualified electrician.

Shade is wobbly or loose

Check the fixture's mounting screws and the mechanism that adjusts the shade and stem. Tighten any loose components gently.

Cable is dirty

Gently wipe the braided cable with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using water or cleaning agents that could stain or damage the braiding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation will vary based on whether the 'switched', 'unswitched', or 'plug' option is selected. For 'switched' and 'unswitched' versions, direct wiring to mains power is required, typically necessitating a qualified electrician. The 'plug' version can be plugged into a standard wall socket.

Compatibility: This fixture is designed for indoor use. It requires a standard E27 bulb (not included). Always check the maximum wattage specification for the bulb to avoid damage.

Care: Clean the bone china shade gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the material and finish. The cable can be wiped with a dry cloth.
