Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Ensure the power is on at the breaker. Check that the E27 bulb is correctly screwed in and is not burnt out. Verify all connections are secure if you performed the installation yourself.
Flickering light
This is often due to a loose bulb. Try tightening the E27 bulb. If the issue persists, the bulb may be faulty or nearing the end of its life. Try a new bulb.
Birds or feathers appear dislodged
Handle the fixture gently. If a feather or bird seems loose, attempt to carefully reposition it. For significant dislodging, contact customer support as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.
Uneven lighting or shadows
Experiment with different E27 bulb types and wattages (up to 40W). The design of the lampshade inherently creates unique light patterns; some variation is intentional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation requires basic electrical knowledge. Ensure the power is switched off at the main breaker before beginning. The pendant comes with a power system and a 140 cm cable, which may need to be adjusted for your specific ceiling height. The light bulb is not included; you will need one E27 bulb with a maximum wattage of 40W.
Compatibility: The Voliere Pendant Light uses a standard E27 socket, compatible with a wide range of E27 bulbs. It is designed for indoor use.
Care: Due to the delicate materials, particularly the real feathers and wire mesh, cleaning should be done with extreme care. Use a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster for the birds and feathers. For the metal lampshade, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure it is dried immediately afterward. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. As each piece is handmade, shades and materials may vary slightly, adding to its unique character.
