Do I need an electrician to install my lights?
We recommend using a fully qualified electrician to install our lighting.
How do I clean my lights?
We advise using a feather duster or a clean dry microfibre cloth. We do offer a glass cleaning kit, tried and tested by us, in our accessories section.
Do you use sustainable packaging?
We love our environment and use eco-friendly packaging including recycled or reused cardboard boxes, eco-fill, recyclable (green)or reused bubble wrap, compostable/biodegradable/reused bags, and paper tape. All our packaging and components are purchased in the U.K wherever possible to reduce our carbon footprint. Both the green and white loose fill are biodegradable. Please reuse or recycle our packaging.
Are your lights dimmable?
All our lighting will work on a dimmable circuit, (unless stated otherwise). Please ensure the lighting is installed on a compatible dimmer that works with LED light bulbs, please check with your electrician. (All of our light bulbs are dimmable).
What light bulb should I choose?
Selecting the right lightbulb for your home involves balancing both practicality and style. It is important to note that we are not light bulb resellers. We sell the light bulbs featured in our photography to help you "recreate the look," however you can use alternative B22 light bulbs in our lighting (Max 12w LED).
When choosing your lightbulb, the key factors to consider are:
Colour Temperature (Kelvin): Our bulbs offer a warm white glow, typically between 2000-2700K. For brighter task lighting, you may prefer bulbs in the 3000-4000K range.
Lumen Output: This measures the brightness of the bulb. We provide the approximate wattage equivalent for easy comparison.
Expected Lifespan: Our LED bulbs are designed to last much longer than traditional incandescent ones, with an average lifespan of around 10,000-15,000 hours.
We have curated a selection of dimmable lightbulbs perfect for our fixtures,
4w clear mini globe, is perfect for smaller lights, such as the Florrie, 2700k warm white, 470 lumens (approximately 40w equivalent)
4w Squirrel cage filament, perfect for the Jules and Molly collections,amber coated 2000k extra warm white and 330 lumens (approximately 25/40w equivalent)
5w Globe filament, 95mm diameter, lovely paired with the Mary or Nancy collections, amber coated 2200k extra warm white, 400 lumens (approximately 40w equivalent)
7.5w Squirrel cage filament, perfect for the Jules, Bertie and Molly collections, amber coated 2200k very warm white and 680 lumens(approximately 50w equivalent)
8w clearSquirrel cage filament, perfect for the Jules, Bertie and Molly collections when you are looking for something brighter, clear 2700k warm white - appears much brighter at 960 lumens(approximately 60w equivalent)
All the above light bulbs are dimmable.
