Houses & Parties Montpellier Table Lamp Shade

This shade is designed for smaller table lamps, such as candlestick or accent lamps. Because of its 6-inch diameter, it pairs best with slender bases that won't overwhelm the shade's delicate proportions.

Yes, it is compatible with standard table lamps, but we recommend using a lower-wattage bulb or an LED equivalent to maintain the soft, warm glow the cotton fabric is designed to emit. Always ensure your bulb choice is cool to the touch to protect the fabric.

To keep the shade looking its best, gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth or a clean, soft-bristled brush. Avoid using water or cleaning agents, as these can damage the cotton fabric and potentially cause the pleats to lose their shape.

The tassel trim is primarily a decorative accent that adds texture and a classic silhouette to the shade. While it hangs below the edge, it does not significantly obstruct the light, though it may cast subtle, soft shadows on the surface below.

Yes, the shade is versatile enough to be placed over a battery-operated tea light or a small LED puck light. This makes it a great option for creating ambient lighting on bookshelves or side tables where a corded lamp might not fit.
