FAQs
Do the marble patterns correspond to each other on a project order?
Note that natural marble is natural and will look slightly different with different veining, color and markings on each of the lamp bases. Lawson Pieces can be of the same stone aggregate, but may feature different patterns. Postmodernlighting can show you what you look like if you have an idea in your head about what it should look like, and they can show you a sample to be approved of.
How to select a suitable interior marble colour for us?
When decorating with light-colored furniture and tone-on-tone color schemes, white marble looks great. Black, gray, or green marble can give a more impactful contrast, and gray is more neutral. Check any stone with your furniture, wall finishes and metal details before making a selection.
Do I use a glass, fabric or metal shade?
The bulb and illuminated glass forms the design with shades of glass. Fabric shades have a mellow effect on light and are appropriate for room lighting in the bedroom and lounge. Metal shades cast light more towards the surface- there is higher control over the position of a light in the case of the adjustable metal shades.
What is the largest size I can use for a lampshade?
Study the complete shade width and base square footage against the night table, and allow space for guest necessities. Take the height of the bed into consideration along with if the lamp will be used primarily to provide ambient light or to help read. Postmodernlighting can analyze the dimensions of your furniture and offer some recommendations about the proportions.
Which bulb would give the best result with a glass tint?
Select an E27 bulb of the lamp’s maximum wattage bright. Since the bulb is visible, its size, brightness and color will determine the finished look. Try it out before with the selected amber or smoky grey glass, to see how it will affect your space.
Are there colors and metal finishes for marbles that can be interwoven with our project?
Yes. Postmodernlighting features a collection of your favourite stone finishes, shade materials and metal finishes. Provide samples or photos of materials for checking of practical combinations of selected design.
Which of the following is the best way to clean marble lamp bases?
Clean with a soft cloth and cleaners suitable for the surface treatment of the stone. Don’t use an abrasive or acidic cleaning compound that may damage the finish. Do not use cleaning liquids on electric components and use only the type of lamp that you have chosen.
What is the most efficient means of packing “marble table lamps” for shipping?
Marble colored base tabs and shades should be protected against impact and movement within the carton. Postmodernlighting comes stretched in protective foam and an export carton – the packing is individual to each design. The details of packaging can be be confirmed before it was sent.
May we order a sample prior to ordering?
Yes. A sample will help you determine the marble’s tone, veining, metal finish and lighting effect with the interior materials. It also serves to check the size of the lamp on the desired bedside table or console.
