The fixture requires two E12 candelabra base bulbs. Each socket supports up to 60 watts, allowing you to choose the brightness that best suits your space.
The shade is crafted from high-quality MDS paper, which provides a soft, diffused glow. While it is durable for standard residential use, it is best suited for areas where it won't be frequently bumped or handled.
No, this fixture is UL Dry Listed, which means it is intended for use in dry, indoor environments only. It should not be installed in bathrooms or any areas prone to moisture or high humidity.
