Using your Lasater Table Lamp is easy. Just plug it into a power outlet and switch it on to instantly light up your space. When placing it, choose a flat and stable surface to prevent it from tipping over. Avoid exposing the lamp to direct sunlight for long periods as it may fade the colors of the crystal and brass. To clean the lamp, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the crystal cubes and the brass base. For the linen shade, you can use a soft brush to remove dust. If the shade gets dirty, follow the care instructions on the linen fabric label. Always turn off the lamp and unplug it before cleaning to ensure safety.
