These Caden table lamps are super easy to use. First, you'll need to assemble them as assembly is required. Once assembled, you can customize them by filling the lamps with marbles, seashells, or your favorite trinkets. Plug in the 60 - inch cord, and you're ready to add a unique glow to your room. When it comes to maintenance, always remember to disconnect the power before you clean the lamp or the shade. Just use a soft, dry cloth to wipe them down. Avoid using chemicals or household cleaners because they can damage the lamp's finish. Also, keep in mind that the lamp contains DEHP and lead, which can be harmful, so handle it with care.
