What is the thickness/height of the base? I want a lamp to sit in the corner of my living room, behind a sectional with the base under the sofa.

The base of this lamp is 2 3/8" high, as noted below, to the bottom of the top-most ring around the vertical shaft.

the base is 11" wide, and as Debra said it tapers... so it depends how much of it needs to be under the sofa? How far is the sofa from the wall, and how much clearance does the sofa have? If your sofa has 2" of clearance, you can get about 4" of the lamp base under it, and you'll need the sofa to be 7 1/2 or 8" from the wall. I hope this helps!

The base builds up gradually in 3 layers. If you can imagine 3 rings, the outside ring about an inch and half in width is 1" in height. The second and widest ring, also about an inch and a half in width is a quarter of an inch higher and the same with the next ring. I could be off by a quarter of an inch. It's hard measure while on a cushy carpet. GREAT LAMP!

don't buy this lamp...after careful assembly, the lamp was crooked and after trying to make it straight the bottom fitting became loose and that was the end of my new lamp from this outfit...very disgusted with their cheep chinese crap.

I think the base would be able to fit behind the sofa. I have it in the corner behind my tv.

About 65 inches. I love this slim, simple lamp I put behind my sewing machine!

if you are talking about the circumference of the base...I am not sure...but I would say the base is about 6 inches long... i hope this will help...I assure you that this is a really nice lamp...I got a lot of compliment on it.

to be honest, I don't remember since I bought it last Christmas. We put it on our end table and it's the perfect height. It was too short for the window I wanted it in, which I was afraid it would be but had to have the lamp anyway and when we put it on the end table we liked it there and that's where we put it at Christmas time :-)

I returned the light so I don't know. It is a huge lamp. We were going to put it behind our sectional sofa but it made the sofa stick to far out from the wall.

A unfortunately, I am not at home to measure! But it is roughly less than 7 feet at the apex. (Your ceilings are 8 feet standard). And, I have my lamp "hovering" between two chairs and -I will guess it is roughly 20-24 inches in. The base is a marble like slab and VERY heavy, and so the lamp stays in place. It is an excellent reading light. Buy the recommended chromium faced light bulb for the filtered light! There is an interesting light pattern on the ceiling from the holes in the "Globe like Shade". I like the lamp.

We actually got this for our son and he just told me that it was probably only about 4 Ft. it has like a space to wind up the cord in the base. I will tell you that he loves this lamp. It is a very heavy and sturdy lamp. You may consider a reliable drop cord or outlet strip. Good luck.

I just put a ruler under it, and came-up with 5.5 inches. I'm using it, right now! It's not 6.5 inches, and Horowitz wasn't very stoked, at all. You should buy this lamp!

Yeah...I'm not measuring it. It doesn't fit under my couch. However, there are adjustable leg heights which put the base probably from 1-4 inches off the ground at an angle.

It is smaller than I thought it would be. The widest part of base is 4.5" diameter. The widest part of lamp shade is 8" diameter. Someone else said it was 15" height. That seems right.

Sorry but I returned the lamps as they did not meet my needs. I don't recall if the base dimensions are listed in the specs on the web site.

Happy to give u some of my using feelings. exactly for ur question the round base is about 16 cm. Overall, this desktop lamp is like a 'robot', exhibiting a strong feeling of mechanics. it can adjust freely the height, lighting position,as it has 'arms' and revolves around the base. One shortcoming is lamp-generated heat is a little bit strong. of course, u will not touch the lamp cover all the time, so it is fine.

Do not have specific measurement, since I purchased this as a gift. However, I do know that the base if no larger than that of a typical lamp.

Hold on - I'll go measure! Put together, it measures 26" from the bottom of the base to the top of the shade - with the filial sticking up about 1" above the shade. I love these lamps because they go so easily with an eclectic mix of furniture.

The base is 6 1/2" wide. My end tables are only 14" wide so they are very narrow as well and the lamps looks very nice. Not overpowering or too large at all.

The base of the lamp is 3 inches but the top of the lamp is under two so it should fit through your shade.

It's on the lamp now but I measured it as best I could. Maybe be off in height by fractions? 3 3/4 " high (or just slightly taller?) X 1 3/4 " wide.
