Using your new lamp is easy. First, find a nice spot in your home to place it. Then, screw in a medium - base bulb with a maximum wattage of 100. You can adjust the light using the 3 - way switch. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the alabaster body and the antique brass base. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the finishes. Keep the lamp away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to maintain its beautiful appearance. And remember, since it doesn't have a USB port, you'll need to rely on the traditional power source.
