Regular cleaning and proper care will ensure your chandelier maintains its appearance and functionality.
7.1. Cleaning

- Metal Frame: Wipe the gold-finished iron frame with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or chemicals, as they may damage the finish.

- Allow bulbs to cool completely before touching them.
