Using your new table lamp is easy. First, assemble it as per the instructions provided. You'll need to attach the white fabric drum shade using the slip UNO shade fitter. Once assembled, find a suitable spot in your home where you want to add some warm lighting. Then, insert a 60 - watt maximum bulb (not included) into the lamp. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the brass base to keep it looking shiny. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can damage the finish. Also, make sure to turn off the lamp and let it cool down before changing the bulb. Remember, this lamp is for home use only, not for commercial settings.
