Using this lamp is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your home where you want to add some beautiful lighting. Make sure the surface is flat and stable to prevent the lamp from tipping over. Screw a 100 - watt medium - base bulb into the socket. Then, use the 3 - way switch to adjust the light brightness according to your needs. When it comes to cleaning, gently dust the lamp body and shade with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they could damage the ceramic glaze or the linen shade. Keep the lamp away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its beautiful appearance over time. If you need to move the lamp, hold it firmly by the base to avoid any accidental drops.
