Opal glass is celebrated for its soft, diffused light and timeless expression. The smooth surface and gentle translucency give each lampshade a refined appearance, while also ensuring a warm and comfortable glow. Though durable, glass requires thoughtful care to maintain its clarity and appearance over time. Our opal glass lampshades are made of mouth-blown glass, and with all handmade products, minor imperfections can appear. The beautiful irregularities make each piece unique and are a natural consequence of handmade designs.
Everyday cleaning
Dust the lampshade regularly with a dry, soft cloth or a feather duster to prevent particles from settling on the surface. For a deeper clean, wipe gently with a cloth wrung in lukewarm water and, if necessary, a mild pH-neutral soap. Always dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid streaks or water spots.
Ongoing care
Avoid abrasive sponges, scouring pads or strong cleaning agents, as these can scratch or dull the glass surface. When cleaning, ensure the lamp is switched off and the shade has cooled completely before handling. With regular care, opal glass will continue to provide a soft, even light and retain its elegant appearance for years to come.
