Using this table lamp is super easy. Just plug it into an outlet and screw in an E26 bulb. It's perfect for reading by your chair or lighting up your room. When it comes to safety, make sure the wattage of the bulb you use doesn't exceed 100 watts. This lamp isn't dimmable, so keep that in mind. To keep it looking great, gently dust the marble base and the metal frame regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they might damage the finish. Since it's UL - listed, you can trust its safety, but always handle electrical appliances with care. And because no assembly is required, you can start using it right away!
