Using your Gaheris table lamp is easy. Just plug it into a power outlet and turn it on to enjoy its soft, elegant light. Place it on a stable surface like a side table or a nightstand. Since it doesn't come with an anti - tip kit, make sure it's in a spot where it won't be easily knocked over. Also, be aware of the Prop 65 warning about Di(2 - ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP). For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the white marble body and the silk shade regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the wax finish or the fabric.
