FAQs
What are the dimensions of the Kartell Bourgie Lamp?
The lamp offers three adjustable heights: 68 cm, 73 cm, and 78 cm. The diameter of the shade is approximately 18 cm.
What type of bulbs does the Bourgie lamp use, and are they included?
Yes, the lamp includes 3 x 28W bulbs. It is designed to use this specific wattage and type for optimal performance and light diffusion.
Why does the fuse need to be changed more often?
Due to the number of bulbs (three) and their wattage, the lamp draws more power, which can lead to the fuse needing replacement more frequently than in lamps with fewer or lower-wattage bulbs.
What is Polycarbonate 2.0?
Polycarbonate 2.0 is an innovative, recycled material partly obtained from ISCC certified industrial cellulose and paper waste. It significantly reduces carbon dioxide emissions compared to traditional fossil-based polycarbonates.
How do I adjust the height of the lamp?
The height is adjusted by carefully lifting or lowering the shade onto the different levels of the baroque-style base. There are three distinct positions available.
Can I use LED bulbs instead of the included 28W bulbs?
While not explicitly stated, it's generally recommended to use the specified bulb type and wattage for optimal performance and to ensure compatibility with the dimmer function and internal fuse.
What colors are available for the Kartell Bourgie Table Lamp?
The lamp is available in various colors, including a sleek matte black and a pristine matte white finish, among others.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on.
Check if the lamp is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Verify the fuse; it may need replacement with the correct 20x5mm 800mA quick blow glass fuse. Ensure bulbs are correctly installed.
Light flickers or is inconsistent.
This could indicate a loose bulb connection or a failing fuse. Ensure bulbs are screwed in securely. If the issue persists, replace the fuse and check bulb condition.
Dimmer function is not working.
Ensure the lamp is powered on. If the dimmer mechanism seems stuck or unresponsive, try unplugging the lamp for a minute and plugging it back in. If the problem continues, contact customer support.
Matte finish appears smudged or dull.
Clean the lamp with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or chemical cleaners, which can damage the finish. Ensure the cloth is not overly wet.
