Using your new Hershey ceramic table lamp is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your kitchen or family room. Since assembly is required, carefully follow the instructions to put the lamp together. Screw in an A19 bulb with a maximum wattage of 150 and an E26 base type into the lamp (the bulb is not included). Then, plug the 8 - foot clear cord into a 110 - volt outlet. You can use the 3 - way function to adjust the lighting as you like. When it comes to maintenance, always remember not to use harsh or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the lamp. Instead, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. If the base gets dirty, you can use a lightly damp cloth with just water. Keep in mind that because the lamp is hand - crafted, there will be unique variations in color, tone, and texture, which is part of its charm. Also, be aware that this product can expose you to chemicals including lead, so take the necessary precautions as mentioned in the Prop 65 warning.
