How do I clean a cranberry glass shade?

Warm soapy water and a soft cloth work best for removing dust from delicate coloured glass. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that might damage hand-painted gilt decoration. Let every component dry fully before reassembling the lamp structure.

Patent marks or maker names stamped on the brass burner wheels offer precise historical reference points. Comparing the shade style and glass colour to documented production eras helps confirm the timeline.
