A chimney is a glass cylinder-like globe used on an oil lamp to control and protect flame and direct smoke upward.

• Select a lamp chimney by bottom diameter which is known as the fitter.
• This bottom fitter is measured outside edge to outside edge of chimney base. Most burners have a narrow seat for chimney to rest on. 
• Height is a matter of personal taste. A typical chimney rises 2″-4″ above top of lamp shade.
• If having trouble getting an accurate diameter. Test by cutting a ring to needed diameter. Slip down over burner to check fit.
• Fit: The chimney should put slight pressure on the tines of the chimney-holder or burner which in turn holds the oil lamp chimney in a stable position. This ensures a proper updraft enabling the burner to function correctly. Make sure it fits securely if using on an oil lamp.
