Lampshades

For silk or linen, lightly dust with feather duster, microcloth or gentle vacuum. Mix a teaspoon of gentle detergent or Ivory soap with water in a tub or sink. Hold shade by metal frame and submerge in water. Rinse gently with warm water and hang to dry. Spot-clean stains with a dry-cleaning stick available online or at the Container Store (not Tide® to Go). For a paper shade, use a rubber/pencil eraser to gently rub spots.

Iron, Aluminum, Copper

Use a clean, soft cloth to gently wipe lamp. Solid metal bases can also be polished using lemon oil. Always use gentle motions.

Brass

A brass cleaner is not necessary as the bases are lacquered to prevent tarnishing. To maintain the finish, use a clean, soft cloth and wipe gently.
