Can I use this pendant light in a bathroom?

What is the warranty period for this product?

How should I clean the smokey grey glass?

Does this pendant light come with bulbs included?

Bulbs are typically not included with pendant lights. You will need to purchase compatible E27 base bulbs separately.

Can I install this pendant light myself?

While some fixtures are designed for DIY installation, this pendant light, due to its delicate glass components and electrical wiring, is best installed by a qualified electrician for safety and proper function.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the power is on at the circuit breaker. Verify the bulb is securely screwed in and is not burnt out. Check all wiring connections, confirming they are secure and correct as per the installation manual.

Flickering light

This could be due to a loose bulb, a failing bulb, or an incompatible dimmer switch. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. If using a dimmer, ensure it is compatible with the type of bulb installed.

Glass shade appears loose

Carefully check the securing mechanism for the glass shade. Ensure all screws or clips are gently tightened. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the glass.

Fittings are tarnished

Gently wipe the silver fittings with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For persistent tarnish, use a specialized silver polishing cloth very sparingly, avoiding contact with the glass.
