Keep your Miira table lamp in rock grey looking its best with a simple routine for cleaning the mouth-blown glass shade and metal base, plus smart placement habits.
Quick answer
Dust the Miira table lamp weekly with a soft dry cloth, clean the mouth-blown glass shade with a mild soap solution and a non-abrasive cloth, and wipe the rock grey metal base with a barely damp cloth. Always switch off and unplug the lamp before cleaning.
Why the glass shade needs a gentler touch than the base
The Miira table lamp pairs a dark grey metal base with a mouth-blown clear glass shade. Mouth-blown glass can carry tiny surface variations, so abrasive sponges or ammonia-based cleaners can dull the finish over time. The metal base is more forgiving, but harsh chemicals can still affect its rock grey surface.
Work from the top down: dust the shade first, then clean the glass, and finish with the base and cable. This stops loosened dust from settling on surfaces you have already cleaned.
Placement habits that reduce cleaning and wear
Keep the lamp away from steamy kitchen zones and open windows where cooking grease or outdoor dust can build up on the glass. A spot with stable, dry air means less frequent deep cleaning.
The cable has an on/off switch, so position the lamp where you can reach the switch comfortably without pulling on the cord. Avoid trapping the cable under heavy objects or bending it sharply behind furniture.
Step-by-step care routine for your Miira table lamp
- Switch off and unplug: Turn off the lamp using the inline switch on the cable, then unplug it from the wall socket. Let the shade cool completely before touching it. Never clean a warm glass shade; sudden temperature changes can stress mouth-blown glass.
- Dust the shade and base: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a feather duster to lift loose dust from the glass shade and the metal base. Work gently around the patterned glass sphere. Skip this dry step and damp cleaning will smear dust into a film that is harder to remove.
- Clean the glass shade: Mix a few drops of mild dish soap in lukewarm water. Dampen a soft, non-abrasive cloth, wipe the glass shade inside and out, then rinse the cloth and wipe again with clean water. Dry immediately with a soft cloth. Do not soak the shade or use abrasive pads; mouth-blown glass can scratch or cloud.
- Wipe the metal base: Dampen a soft cloth with the same mild soapy water and wipe the rock grey base, then dry it with a clean cloth. Avoid letting water sit on the metal or run into the fitting. Never spray cleaner directly onto the base; apply it to the cloth first to protect the finish and electrical parts.
- Check the cable and switch: Inspect the cable and inline switch for wear or stiffness. Wipe them with a dry cloth only, and keep the switch free of moisture. If the cable is damaged, stop using the lamp and have it checked by a qualified electrician.
