The frosted amber glass shade features a ruffled rim and a raised diamond pattern. The fixture stands on a weighted, flared circular base equipped with an on/off rotary switch. A modern safety label is present on the socket and a partial UL tag is attached to the cord. No manufacturer labels are present. 18 1/2″ H x 14″ W x 9″ D.
