Using your llama - themed table lamp is a breeze. First, find a nice spot for it, like on your bedside table or study desk. Then, plug in the 57.75 - inch cord to a power outlet. Next, screw in a 60W incandescent, LED, or CFL bulb of A19 shape. Once the bulb is in, turn on the lamp and enjoy the soft glow. As for maintenance, gently dust the lamp regularly using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they might damage the fabric shade, metal parts, or the polyresin llama head. And remember, this lamp is not subject to Prop65 chemical regulations, so you can use it with peace of mind. If you have any issues or questions, don't hesitate to reach out.
