Using the Jubilee Table Lamp is a breeze. Just plug it into a power outlet and switch it on to light up your space. When placing it, keep in mind that a pair looks great on a buffet or in the entryway. As for maintenance, gently dust the lamp regularly with a soft, dry cloth to keep it looking shiny. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the gold finish and the acrylic base. Also, make sure to replace the light - bulb with the same wattage recommended to ensure proper functioning and safety.
