Good to know
Questions customers ask
Quick answers before you buy.
Which bulbs does it take?
Six E12 candle bulbs. E12 is the US candle size, a little smaller than the E14 bulbs common in New Zealand, so standard NZ candle bulbs won't fit. We stock E12 LED bulbs to suit.
Can it go in a bathroom?
Yes. It's US damp rated, which suits bathrooms outside the wet zones. Your electrician will confirm placement against the NZ zones.
Is it suitable for New Zealand?
Yes. It is converted to 230 V for New Zealand, and a Supplier Declaration of Conformity is available on request.
Will you match a lower price?
Yes. If another authorised New Zealand retailer advertises the same product, in the same finish, for less, send us the link before you order and we will match it. The details are on our price match promise page.
