FAQs

What type of light bulb should I use with this shade?

The shade does not come with a bulb. You can use any standard E27 or E14 bulb (depending on your fitting) with the appropriate wattage and style that fits your lighting needs and complements the shade's design. LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency.

Does this product come with a light fitting or cord?

No, this product is only the lampshade. You will need a separate pendant light fitting, cord, and bulb for installation.

What are the exact dimensions of the shade?

The shade has a height of 18cm and a diameter of 10cm. The top opening for the fitting is 4cm.

Can this shade be used outdoors?

The shade is designed for indoor use. While made of metal, it is not rated for outdoor weather exposure.

How do I clean the metal surface?

Clean gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials to protect the finish.

Is the 'Rustic Red' color consistent across all units?

Due to the nature of metal finishes and potential variations in lighting, slight color variations may occur. The 'Rustic Red' aims for a consistent, warm, reddish-brown industrial tone.

What is the purpose of the reducer ring?

The reducer ring is included to help the 4cm top hole of the lampshade fit onto smaller, standard pendant light fittings, ensuring a secure and snug fit.

Troubleshooting

Lampshade does not fit the light fitting.

Verify the size of your light fitting. Use the provided reducer ring if your fitting is smaller than 4cm at the top opening. If the fitting is larger, a different type of shade or adapter may be required.

Shade appears loose after installation.

Ensure the reducer ring (if used) is securely in place and that the shade is resting evenly on the fitting. Do not overtighten.

Surface has minor scuffs or scratches.

Light scuffs can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consult the manufacturer for potential touch-up solutions, though the metal finish is designed to be durable.
