Table lamps, four variants

SR-2026-049 · Lighting · Table lamps · July 2026

Receiving photographs

Table lamps, four variants as received at the consolidation warehouse
As received. The lot on the dock before anything is opened — counted against the packing list and checked for carton damage first, because a claim on transit damage has to be raised before the goods are moved.
Table lamps, four variants — Opened on our floor
Opened on our floor. The first carton of the lot is opened in full. One unit is assembled or powered up as the client will use it, and compared against the approved sample rather than against the catalogue photograph.
Table lamps, four variants — Fittings and hardware
Fittings and hardware. Hardware, fixings and loose components are checked against the parts list before the carton is resealed — a missing bag of fittings is a return on arrival, not a spare part.

Photographs taken at our consolidation warehouse as the lot was received and checked. Container numbers, shipping labels, supplier marks and brand markings are masked; the lot is shown as it arrived, not restyled.

How this order was run

  1. Priced the order against Zhongshan (Guzhen) makers on the same specification, and separated unit price from packing so the comparison was like for like.
  2. Agreed the carton specification in writing before production — carton grade and insert design are where a landed cost quietly moves.
  3. Consolidated the lot at the warehouse so it left as one release rather than as separate supplier drops.

What was checked at receiving

This is the table lamps check sheet — the same list every order in this category goes through before the container is released.

  • Every unit in the inspection set powered and run at the destination voltage, not at 220 V and assumed
  • Lamp holder, wiring gauge, earthing and plug type checked against the destination market standard
  • Finish inspected for plating runs and for colour variation between components of the same fixture
  • Glass and shades inspected for chips at the rim and test-fitted on the holder before boxing
  • Lead length, switch position and fitting type confirmed against the destination market's expectation

How it was packed

  • Moulded foam or honeycomb insert per fixture, with glass and shades boxed separately where the shape allows
  • Corner drop test per lot — glass is what breaks, not the metal
  • Fixtures of the same model strapped as a block, not loose
  • Carton marked with model, voltage and quantity for the receiving warehouse

The note

Lighting fails on the electrical check and on glass. Both are settled before the container closes — after that, a fixture that does not light is a return, not a repair.

It is why lighting is inspected powered, at the destination voltage, with the glass test-fitted — a fixture is either right on arrival or it is a return, because there is no field repair in this category.
