Product Information
Full details
The Samara Table Lamp by Quintiesse is designed for users seeking an elegant and versatile lighting solution for living rooms and bedrooms, offering distinct mood lighting capabilities through its dual light sources. Its primary benefit lies in its ability to provide ambient and task lighting independently or together. A potential caveat is the reliance on specific bulb types for each light source.

FAQs
What type of bulbs does the Samara Table Lamp use?
The lamp uses an E27 base bulb for the fabric shade and a GU10 base bulb for the integrated LED in the glass base.
Can I use LED bulbs in both sockets?
Yes, you can use an LED bulb for the E27 shade socket, and the base features an integrated LED. Ensure any replacement GU10 bulb is compatible.
How do I control the lights?
The lamp features a 4-way switch built into the cable that allows you to control the shade light and the base light independently or together.
What are the dimensions of the lamp?
Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information. Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's detailed specifications for exact measurements.
Is the glass base supposed to be illuminated constantly?
The glass base has an integrated LED that can be turned on or off via the 4-way switch, allowing you to control its illumination independently.
What is the warranty period for this lamp?
Warranty information is not provided in the product description. Please check with the retailer or Quintiesse for warranty details.
Can I use this lamp outdoors?
No, this lamp is designed for indoor use only. It is not weatherproof.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Ensure the lamp is properly plugged into a working outlet. Check that the bulbs are correctly installed and not burnt out. Verify the 4-way switch is in an 'on' position for at least one light source.
Only one light source works
Check the specific bulb for the non-working light source. Ensure it is the correct type (E27 for shade, GU10 for base) and is screwed in properly. Test the switch by cycling through its positions.
Flickering light
This may indicate a loose bulb connection or an incompatible bulb type. Ensure the bulb is securely fitted. If using an LED, ensure it is compatible with the fixture's switch type or consider trying a different LED bulb.
Glass base light is too dim/bright
The integrated LED in the base has a fixed output. For adjustable brightness, consider using a dimmable GU10 LED bulb if compatible with the fixture, though the built-in LED may not be dimmable. The shade light's brightness depends on the E27 bulb used.

Cons
- Requires specific bulb types (E27 for shade, GU10 for base) which may need separate purchase.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unpack all components carefully, ensuring no parts are damaged.
- Insert the appropriate bulbs: an E27 base bulb for the fabric shade and a GU10 bulb for the glass base. Ensure bulbs are within the recommended wattage limits to prevent overheating.
- Place the lamp on a stable, flat surface.
- Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet.
- Use the 4-way switch on the cable to test the lighting functions.
Compatibility:
- Shade Bulb: Requires one E27 base bulb (incandescent, LED, or CFL, check maximum wattage).
- Base Bulb: Requires one GU10 base bulb (LED recommended for integrated effect and longevity).
- Voltage: Standard household voltage (confirm local standards if unsure).
Care:
- Cleaning: Always unplug the lamp before cleaning. Wipe the glass base and metalwork with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The fabric shade can typically be cleaned with a gentle dusting or a specialized fabric brush; consult the manufacturer's recommendations if available.
- Bulb Replacement: Allow bulbs to cool completely before attempting to replace them. Follow standard procedures for bulb replacement for E27 and GU10 sockets.
