Using this Chrislie table lamp is a breeze. Simply place it on a stable surface like a side table or nightstand, plug it in, and turn it on to enjoy a warm, inviting glow. When cleaning, remember to only spot clean the lamp to keep it looking its best. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the pecan finish, the gold accents, or the white linen shade. If the shade gets a bit dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Store the lamp in a dry place when not in use to prevent any damage.
