Rest restoration tips: For brass, wipe with a soft cloth dampened with a solution of white vinegar and warm water to remove oxidation without damaging the patina. For the glass lampshade, a gentle cleaning with soapy water is sufficient. Have the electrical wiring checked by a professional if the item is to be installed, as old components can pose fire hazards.
