Height 21 1/2 inches; height of 6 1/2 shade, diameter 16 inches.
Shade: appears to be in generally good conidtion; shade appears to be "in-the-round;" there are approximatel three 'feather' glass segments with hairine cracks; there are approximately eight glass segments with hairline cracks at the lower geometric border; no hairline cracks were observed to any of the oval or teardrop-shaped 'peacock eye' glass segments; no apparent evidence of replacement or restoration to any of the individual glass segments; some of the horizontal caming and lower rim band of the shade retain traces of green patina (this patina is mostly worn away elsewhere on the caming on the exterior side); the green patina is more intact on the interior side of the shade
Base: the lamp has three light sockets; the sockets appear to have age; all three on-off light-switch paddles are marked WEBER; the lamp is currently wired, however, the switches, sockets, and wiring were not tested; the lamp base has a uniform mottled green and chocolate brown patina; the patina currently has a dulled appearance (would benefit from a cleaning and waxing); the heat cap may or may not be an original Tiffany Studios heat cap; the heat cap lacks a screw to allow it to securely and properly screw on to the bronze ring at the top of the base
