Eangee recommends light bulbs based on heat, not by light output.
We recommend using either compact florescent light (CFL) bulbs or LED bulbs. These will provide the same amount of light but use less wattage and produce less heat as compared to a standard incandescent bulb. The lower heat will help ensure the longevity of the lamp .
If you use an incandescent bulb, we suggest a maximum of 40 watts.
Due to the handmade nature of this product, please allow up to 4 - 8 weeks for delivery. Once your order is placed you will be charge. Thank you.

We are a founding member of the Sustainable Furnishings Council; a coalition of manufacturers, retailers, and designers dedicated to raising awareness and expanding the adoption of environmentally sustainable practices across the home furnishings industry.
Our products are manufactured using materials that are sustainably harvested, safe dyes that are food-based, and water-based finishes.
The leaves used in our products are either collected after a tree naturally sheds them or are plucked from a living tree. In either case, the plant isn't harmed. Additionally, the purchase of the leaves we use provides a secondary income to the framers who grow and care for plants.

We visit our manufacturers on a regular basis to ensure that our core mission is being followed.
Our products are produced in the Philippines, a country that is fast growing, and progressive on ensuring workers' rights. It is also a country where many companies are run by women and their entrepreneurial efforts are encouraged.
The artisans who make our pieces are paid a living wage, provided quality housing, have access to continuing education, and work under dignified and safe conditions.
The handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
Bulb Access
Make sure the gecko hood opening faces right side up or upside down in order to vent the heat from the light bulb. Hanging the lamp sideways or sitting it on a flat surface can cause the shade to fade or damage since the heat is trapped within the shade.
