Using this table lamp is a breeze. First, find a stable spot for it in your room. Partially assemble it by attaching the shade to the base using the spider shade fitter. Plug in the 72 - inch cord to a power source and use the rotary socket switch to turn it on and off. For maintenance, gently dust the ceramic base and the linen shade regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals on the base or getting the linen shade wet. When cleaning the base, use a soft, dry cloth. If the shade gets dirty, you can use a lint roller or a soft brush to remove dust. This lamp can be used in commercial settings as well, but make sure it's placed away from high - traffic areas to prevent accidental knocks. And always follow Prop65 safety guidelines. You'll receive the exact lamp according to the options you've chosen, so enjoy creating a warm and inviting atmosphere in your space!
