Product Information
Full details
The Graypants Pendant Light (Natural) is designed for individuals seeking to add a warm, sculptural, and sustainable lighting element to their interior spaces. Its key benefit is the creation of an intimate, atmospheric glow through its unique recycled cardboard construction. A caveat to consider is its material's sensitivity to moisture and potential for dust accumulation due to its porous nature. This handcrafted pendant light, part of the Scraplights collection, features a softly tapered silhouette precision-cut from recycled cardboard, with laser-etched edges that highlight its corrugated layers. It provides soft, inviting illumination, making it a distinctive addition to dining areas, living rooms, or hospitality settings.

FAQs
Is the cardboard treated for fire safety?
Yes, each Scraplight is treated with a non-toxic fire retardant for safety.
What type of light bulb should I use?
The pendant requires a separate light bulb. Please refer to the fixture's specifications for recommended wattage and type (e.g., LED, incandescent) to ensure safe operation.
How is the pendant assembled?
It is assembled by hand using a non-toxic adhesive, which is carefully applied to maintain the integrity and aesthetic of the recycled cardboard.
Can I clean the pendant with a damp cloth?
It is strongly advised against using a damp cloth, as moisture can damage the recycled cardboard material. Stick to dry dusting methods.

Is this product suitable for outdoor use?
No, this product is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to weather, moisture, and humidity can permanently damage the cardboard material.
What does 'Natural' refer to in the product title?

Troubleshooting
Light flickers or does not turn on.
Ensure the light bulb is screwed in properly and is not burnt out. Verify that the power to the fixture is active and that the wiring connections are secure (consult an electrician if unsure).
Pendant appears uneven or warped.
This is usually due to exposure to humidity. Allow the pendant to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from heat sources. If warping is significant, contact customer support.
Dust accumulation is noticeable.
Gently use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a can of compressed air (held at a distance) to remove dust. Avoid direct contact with the cardboard surface if possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This pendant light is designed to be hardwired into your existing ceiling fixture by a qualified electrician. Ensure the power is turned off at the source before installation.
Compatibility: The pendant is compatible with standard household electrical systems. It requires a light bulb (not included) that is suitable for pendant fixtures. Check the fixture's maximum wattage recommendation to avoid overheating.
