Thanx for the tips. My wife bought it for me for Christmas after I picked it out at the Medina Antique Mall here in Ohio. I have a lot of Cut Crystal but this is my first lamp and agree, it is a beautiful thing. It is 21″ tall. Has to have been rewired as it most probably would have had a toggle type switch on the cord, but this one has a rotary type more modern switch. When get the guts and gumchen, I will get out the blacklight and magnifying glass and give it a go!!! Thanx again!
