Completely assembled, this lamp is 6 inches high. The Aroma Glow Lamplight consists of a hollow hourglass-shape steel base measuring approximately 4 inches high by 4 inches wide with an adjustable vent steel collar to secure a 3oz. cartridge filled with scented oil and a frosted glass inverted bell-shaped shade measuring approximately 4 inches high with an open top diameter of 5 inches. Completely assembled, this lamp is 8¼ inches high. The two oil lamps may be imported with mosaic tile lamp shades.
