FAQs

What type of bulb does the Northern Birdy Wall Light use?

The Birdy Wall Light typically uses a standard screw-in bulb (e.g., E27 base). Refer to the product's specific documentation for the maximum recommended wattage and bulb type to ensure optimal performance and safety.

Does the lamp come with a bulb?

Bulbs are usually sold separately. Please check the product packaging or description at the point of purchase to confirm.

Can I change the arm length after purchase?

No, the Birdy Wall Light is manufactured with either a short or long arm. You must select the desired arm length at the time of purchase, as it is not interchangeable.

Is the Grey finish matte or gloss?

The description specifies a Grey finish for the shade. For precise details on the sheen (matte or gloss), consult the product's official specifications or retailer information.

What are the dimensions of the lamp?

Specific dimensions depend on whether the short or long arm is chosen. Refer to the product's technical specifications for detailed measurements of the shade, arm length, and wall mount base.

Can this light be used in a bathroom?

The Birdy Wall Light is generally intended for dry indoor spaces like living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens. Its suitability for bathrooms depends on the specific IP rating (ingress protection) which is not detailed here. Consult product specifications for environmental suitability.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Ensure the lamp is securely plugged into a working power outlet. Check that the light bulb is correctly screwed in and not burnt out. Verify the on/off switch on the cable is in the 'on' position.

Flickering light.

This could indicate a loose bulb connection or a failing bulb. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. If the issue persists, check the power connection and the condition of the cable.

Arm or head is loose.

Gently try to tighten any visible screws or joints. If the adjustment mechanism feels worn or broken, professional assessment may be required.
