The goods
IMPORTANT
- Do not tighten bolts / screws completely until all bolts / screws are lined up and inserted into holes.
- Do not over tighten screws and bolts to avoid stripping.
- Please use hand tools to assemble this product. Do not use power tools.
Pre-Installation
- Read all instructions prior to beginning assembly.
- To avoid damaging this product, assemble it on a soft, non-abrasive surface such as carpet or cardboard.
- Keep the receipt and these instructions for proof of purchase.
- Use 2 type G50 bulbs up to 60 watts or CFL or LED equivalent (not included).
Step 1
Okay, time to get started! Don’t worry, we made the first step extra easy. Thread the middle post section into the back of the Fixture (1) and remove the Socket Rings (2).
Helpful tip: Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey!
Step 2
Secure the back plate of the Fixture (1) to the middle post section using the provided hardware. Tighten with the Wrench (D).
Step 3
You’re doing great! Are you a professional or something? Now it’s time to attach the Shades (3) to the Fixture (1) using the Socket Rings (2).
Step 4
You’re almost halfway done! Time for a snack break… Okay, back to work. Now
it’s time to make sure your fixture will be nice and level when it’s
installed. To do this, turn the round plate on the back of the Fixture (1) to
ensure the holes in the round plate are horizontal/level. You can place the
Fixture on a table top to help with this step. Once the holes in the plate are
horizontal, secure the nut on the back of the round plate using the Wrench (D
).
Step 5
- Remove the Finial Nuts (E) from the Cross Bar (C).
Step 6
Okay, now for the fun part. Install the Cross Bar (C) to your pre-installed
electrical box using the Junction Box Screws (A). Tighten using a Phillips
head screwdriver.
Note: Be sure that you are only making the connections to a 120V AC 60Hz circuit. If you do not have a pre-existing electrical box, we strongly advise using a certified electrician.
Step 7
Now wrap the ground wire around the grounding screw on the Cross Bar (C).
Secure by tightening the screw using a Phillips head screwdriver.
Step 8
Join the matching colored wires (white to white, black to black, and ground
to ground) with Wire Connectors (B). Tuck the excess wire into the electrical
box.
Step 9
Now it’s time to secure the Fixture (1) to the Cross Bar (C) on your pre-
installed electrical box using the Decorative Nuts (E). Be sure that you have
all of the excess wire tucked into the electrical box.
Step 10
Now for the final touch: install the light bulbs! We recommend 2 type G50
bulbs. And voila, let there be light!

Questions? Don’t worry, we’ve got the answers
What other light bulbs can fit in this light?
The bulb must not be greater than the max wattage for the fixture. It must
match the base size, and the diameter of any area of the bulb should be less
than diameter of any area of shade, so that it can fit.
Can I use an LED light bulb?
Yes, so long that the base size matches and the diameter of any area of bulb
is less than diameter of any area of shade, so that it can fit.
Is this UL/ETL certified?
Yes, all our products are either UL or ETL.
Do I need an electrician to set up the hardwire?
We recommend using a certified electrician for all hardwiring, although all of
our fixtures can be set up without an electrician, as long as you are
replacing an existing fixture or have an existing junction box ready for a
fixture installation. ENSURE POWER IS OFF WHEN INSTALLING. For all new
constructions, please use a certified electrician.
Can I retrofit this hard-wired to a plug-in or vice-versa?
Yes, a plug-in fixture can be turned into a hardwire fixture and a hardwire
fixture can become a plug-in fixture. For many products we will provide all
the necessary hardware to make these changes, if not, you will need to
purchase the necessary hardware. Is this light compatible outside
North America?
Our lighting is only warranted in Canada and the United States.
What do I do if the product is not working?
Try a different light bulb and confirm proper installation.
Can these lights work on a dimmer?
Dimmability is related to the light bulb and the wall switch, not the light
fixture. All our hardwire fixtures are compatible with dimmable light bulbs.
We recommend using a dimmer switch, as it extends the life of the bulb and
allows for energy saving and great ambiance. If using a LED bulb, please
ensure both your LED bulb and dimmer switch are compatible.
Can I use the fixture outdoors?
For vanity light fixtures, we have a damp rating, which approves the use in
bathrooms or other damp areas, but is not approved for outdoor use unless
specified.
