THANK YOU SAPPHIRE FOR YOUR EXPERT HELP. THOSE LAMPS ARE REALLY BUGGING ME. I'M SO NEW AT THIS WEBSITE, I HOPE I'LL DO OKAY. I HAD SEARCHED THE WEB ABOUT BENROSE PRIOR TO FINDING THIS SITE AND I COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING EITHER. I'M GONNA GO TO THE LOCAL LIBRARY TOMORROW TO SEE WHAT I CAN FIND OUT. HOPEFULLY I'LL FIND SOMETHING INTERESTING TO SHARE.

THANK YOU REGULARJOE FOR YOUR WELCOME AND YOUR POST TO ME IN REGARDS TO MY LAMPS. AND YOUR RIGHT, I'VE ALWAYS LOVED THOSE LAMPS FOR SOME ODD REASON. THEY JUST SEEM TO DRAW YOU INTO THEM. I WILL DEFENETLY ENJOY THEM FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE BECAUSE I HAVE NO PLANS OF EVER SELLING THEM NO MATTER WHAT THE WORTH.
THANX AGAIN AND HOPE TO SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN SOON

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR EXPERT KNOWLEDGE OF BENROSE. JUST ONE THING I WAS BORN IN 1959 AND THESE LAMPS WERE IN OUR HOME IN PHOTOS PRIOR TO MY BIRTH.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE BENROSE COMPANY? I AM SO STUMPED. I CANNOT FIND OUT ANYTHING ABOUT THE BENROSE COMPANY OTHER THAN THEY MANUFACTURED BEAUTIFUL PORCELAIN LAMPS IN ITALY. I OWN A PAIR AND HAVE NO IDEA OF THE HISTORY BEHIND THEM OR THE VALUE. THANX IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP.

HI EVERYONE, I HAVE A PAIR OF BENROSE TABLE LAMPS THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER AND EVEN BEFORE THAT. I ALWAYS ADMIRED THEM AS A CHILD SO, WHEN MY MOTHER PASSED AWAY 2 YEARS AGO, I CLAIMED THEM FOR MY OWN. I WAS RECENTLY REWIRING THEM AND FOUND THE "BENROSE ITALY 00552" UNDER THE BASE WRITTEN IN WHAT APPEARS TO BE GOLD. I NEED TO KNOW AS MUCH AS I CAN ABOUT THESE LAMPS SO AS I CAN HAVE THEM INSURED IF NECESSARY. IN ANY EVENT,THEY ARE NOT FOR SALE. THANK YOU TO ANYONE AND ALL WHO CAN HELP.
