Using the Carrin Table Lamp is a breeze. First, assemble the lamp as per the instructions provided. Since the bulbs aren't included, you need to buy two 60 - Watt bulbs with a medium E26 base (A19 type). Simply screw them into the sockets. You can control each bulb independently using the pull - chain switches located at the socket. Place it on a bedside table for reading or in a living room or hallway for accent lighting. Remember, this lamp is only for dry locations, so don't put it in damp areas. To keep it looking great, clean it regularly with a soft dry cloth. Each piece of the cream and green stone is unique, so expect some color variation. And because it has a Prop65 warning for lead, handle it with care, especially if you're pregnant or have concerns about reproductive health.
