FAQs
What type of bulb does the Original BTC Cosmo Table Lamp use?
The lamp uses a standard screw-in bulb base (typically E27). Please refer to the product's specific wattage limit to ensure correct bulb selection for optimal performance and safety.
Is the light bright enough for reading?
The Cosmo Table Lamp is designed primarily for ambient lighting, providing a soft, diffused glow. While it can be used for casual reading, for focused tasks, a brighter task light might be more suitable. Using a higher wattage bulb within the recommended limit will increase brightness.
How do I clean the bone china shade?
Dust the shade with a soft, dry cloth. For any marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent damage to the material.
Can I use this lamp outdoors?
No, this lamp is designed for indoor use only. It is not weather-resistant.
What is the difference between the 'Smooth ceramic', 'Stepped ceramic', and 'Dimpled ceramic' finishes?
The 'Smooth ceramic' has a plain, untextured surface. 'Stepped ceramic' features a series of concentric ridges or steps. 'Dimpled ceramic' has a textured surface with small, evenly spaced indentations. These variations affect the way light interacts with the shade, creating different visual dimensions.
Is the chrome base prone to tarnishing?
Polished chrome is durable, but like any metal finish, it can tarnish over time if not cared for. Regular polishing with a soft cloth will help maintain its shine and prevent tarnishing.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the lamp and a working electrical outlet. Check that the light bulb is screwed in properly and is not burnt out. Try a different light bulb.
Flickering light
This could be due to a loose bulb connection or an issue with the light bulb itself. Tighten the bulb and try a different bulb. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Shade appears discolored
Bone china can sometimes absorb ambient light or stains if not cleaned properly. Gently clean the shade with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid exposure to smoke or harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:
