Product Information

Full details

The Mathieu Challières Volière Wall Light in Copper is designed for interior decorators and homeowners seeking a unique, artistic statement piece. Its key benefit is the creation of a whimsical and elegant ambiance, bringing a touch of nature indoors with its birdcage design and real feather accents. A potential caveat is that its handcrafted nature means each piece may have slight variations, and it requires a specific bulb type.

FAQs

What type of light bulb should I use?

You need an E14 base bulb with a maximum wattage of 40W. The bulb is not included with the fixture.

Is the light dimmable?

The dimmability depends on the type of E14 bulb you install. If you use a dimmable E14 bulb and a compatible dimmer switch, the light can be dimmed.

How do I clean the Volière wall light?

Dust the metal lampshade with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Be very gentle with the feather birds; dust them carefully and avoid any moisture.

Where is this light fixture made?

This light fixture is handcrafted in France.

Can I mount this fixture outdoors?

No, the Volière wall light is designed for indoor use only.

Will my light look exactly like the picture?

Due to the handcrafted nature and use of real feathers, each piece may vary slightly, making your light unique.

What is the warranty period?

Information on the specific warranty period is not provided, please refer to the retailer's policy for details.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the bulb is correctly installed and has not burned out. Verify the power connection to the fixture and ensure the wall switch is functional. Confirm the correct bulb type (E14, Max 40W) is used.

Flickering light

This could indicate a loose bulb or an issue with the bulb itself. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one of the correct specification. Ensure the power connection is secure.

Feather birds appear damaged or dislodged

Gently reposition any dislodged feathers. If feathers are broken, professional repair may be needed due to their delicate nature. Avoid touching the feathers excessively to maintain their appearance.
