Using this table lamp is a breeze. First, make sure to screw in two 60W E26 medium - base type A bulbs (you'll need to buy these separately). You can use CFL or LED bulbs as well since the lamp is compatible with them. Then, simply use the double pull - chain switches to turn each light on or off independently. It's great for both home and commercial spaces. There's no need to worry about assembly as it comes ready to use. When it comes to maintenance, just use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the lamp's metal base and glass parts. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they might damage the finish. Also, keep in mind that while the lamp is not subject to Prop65 regulations, always handle it with care to prevent any accidental damage.
