FAQs
What are the dimensions of the Neotenic table lamp?
The dimensions are W 34 x H 51 cm, with a diffuser diameter of Ø 25 cm and a cable length of 180 cm.
What type of light bulb should I use?
The lamp uses a standard E27 socket. Please refer to the product's technical specifications for the maximum recommended wattage to avoid damage.
Is the color 'Red' the same as Vermilion?
The product information lists 'Griotte' (Red), 'Vermilion', and 'Vanilla' as signature Petite Friture colors. While both 'Red' and 'Vermilion' are in the red family, they may represent distinct shades as offered by the brand.
How is the ceramic body made?
The ceramic body is crafted by artisans in Portugal using a complex, multi-part mold to achieve its rounded, organic shape. It then undergoes meticulous hand-finishing before firing.
Can I clean the ceramic with household cleaners?
It is recommended to use only a soft, damp cloth for cleaning the ceramic body. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the artisanal finish.
What does 'Neotenic' refer to in the lamp's name?
The name 'Neotenic' relates to the designers' intention for the lamp's round, generous, and organic shapes to evoke the reassuring aesthetics of childhood and create an emotional bond.
Are there other sizes available besides the one listed?
The product description mentions the lamp is available in two sizes, though only specific dimensions are provided here. Please consult the retailer for details on the other size option.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Ensure the power cable is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check that the light bulb is screwed in correctly and is not burnt out. Test with a different bulb.
Uneven light diffusion
Verify the light bulb is centered within the glass diffuser. Ensure no foreign objects are obstructing the light path. If the issue persists, there might be a defect in the diffuser.
Surface scratching on ceramic
Avoid placing abrasive objects directly on the ceramic surface. For minor scuffs, try a very soft, slightly damp cloth. Professional restoration may be needed for deep scratches.
