Maintenance
Regular cleaning will help maintain the appearance and performance of your fixture.
- Cleaning the Fixture: Turn off power before cleaning. Wipe the metal parts with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, polishes, or solvents as they may damage the finish.
- Cleaning the Glass Shade: The clear handblown glass shade can be gently wiped with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild glass cleaner applied to the cloth, not directly to the glass. Ensure the glass is completely dry before restoring power.
