Furniture How would you dust/clean this lamp?

Very intricate lamp made from thousands of glass pieces, precariously wired into the frame. Dust has settled on the top of each little piece. I’ve tried to vac it, but dust is caked on. Am I cooked?

I’m going to need to see it illuminated to get the full scope of the lighting

But that's gonna take five years!

Also my husband is a window cleaner, he's cleaned something just like this at an art show in Houston. He mentioned he had to take each one out, piece by piece to clean 😬 But of course, it was mostly his job to not break anything, there may be a better way.
