LAMPSHADE PRODUCT INFORMATION AND SAFETY
​
Hard lampshades: The PVC lampshade material used has been tested with the Lighting Association Laboratories and has passed the glow wire test for fire resistance to comply with BS EN 60598-1-2008, the British Standard for Luminaries.
​
Handstitched lampshades: These are not covered by the BS EN 60598-1-2008 regulations. All of my handstitched shades in my online shop are treated with a water-based fire-proofing spray, which creates a flame retardant barrier on natural and synthetic fabrics and has a non-toxic, non-hazardous formulation.
​
Safety certificates from the manufacturers of the PVC lampshade material and the fire-proofing spray can be provided. If required please send me an email to request the information before you make an online purchase.
​
Recommendations for bulb wattage are provided on each lampshade listing. They are as follows:
Bulb Wattage / Critical Radius
0-25 Watts / 25mm
26-40 Watts / 50mm
41-60 Watts / 65mm
61-75 Watts / 75mm
76-100 Watts / 90mm
101-150 Watts / 130mm
Colours of the items are shown as accurately as possible on the website but because of varying computer settings the colours may differ on your computer screen. Returns will not be accepted if the colour is not exact. If you require colour matching, email me to ask for a sample of the fabric before making an online purchase.
