In short, it is a tall statement lamp rather than a small bedside one, so allow a surface of at least 40cm deep and check the height clearance above it.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWhat is papier mache like as a lamp base?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eHandmade, textured and light. It is built up in layers rather than moulded, which gives it an organic surface and a form that varies slightly from piece to piece. The trade-off is that it must be kept dry and away from knocks.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eIs it fragile?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eIt is more delicate than ceramic or stone. It will not shatter, but the surface can dent under a knock and it must not get wet. In normal use on a console or a side table it is perfectly robust.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eIs a bulb included?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eNo. It takes a standard E27 large screw fitting. We would suggest a warm LED at 2400K to 2700K, which is what gives the neutral finish and the woven shade their warmth.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eCan I dim it?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eDimming depends on your bulb and switch. Fit a dimmable LED and pair it with a compatible dimmer, or use a smart bulb for app and voice control. The lamp takes a standard E27, so both work.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the woven shade do to the light?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eLight passes through the gaps in the weave as well as through the material, so it casts a soft pattern onto the wall and ceiling as well as lighting the room. It is at its best in a dark room against a plain wall.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWill it work as a bedside lamp?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eIn a large bedroom with a generous bedside table, yes, and it looks striking. On a compact bedside it will dominate, and a lamp of 45cm to 60cm would suit better.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eCan I use it in a bathroom?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eNo. Papier mache and moisture do not mix, and this is an interior lamp for dry rooms only. Not for bathrooms, utility rooms or conservatories that get condensation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA soft dry cloth or brush on the base, and a dry brush on the shade. Never use water or cleaning spray on either. This is the single most important thing to know about the lamp.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWill every lamp look the same?\u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"faq-a\"\u003eClose, but not identical. Papier mache is built up by hand, so texture and surface vary between pieces.
