1/4 size - 20 to 23 inches

1/2 size - 23 to 26 inches

It depends on the size you are referring to. Cellos can be as small as a large violin, if one is made for an infant. Full sizes can be custom made for larger people. There is no definite length to a cello. Also, it depends on whether you are including the length of the endpin extended to the equation.
