Maintenance Tips
  • Regular dusting: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently remove dust from the 72 stainless steel leaves to preserve the sculptural finish.
  • Careful cleaning: Wipe with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water for fingerprints or grease; dry immediately to avoid water spots.
  • Avoid abrasives: Do not use scouring pads, polish, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners—these can scratch or dull the polished stainless steel surface.
  • Leaf-by-leaf care: Clean carefully between layers to prevent dust buildup while avoiding bending or pressure on the thin metal fins.
  • No soaking or spraying: Never immerse or directly spray the fixture; moisture can damage internal wiring and canopy components.
  • Switch off before cleaning: Always ensure the lamp is completely off and cool before maintenance.
  • Check suspension cables: Periodically inspect steel cables and mounting hardware for stability due to the fixture’s heavy weight.
  • Optional deep clean: For stubborn marks, use a minimal amount of diluted neutral detergent and immediately buff dry for a streak-free shine.
