Ben Rose Cherub Lamps
« on: June 12, 2013, 09:05:49 am »
I have two Ben Rose Cherub Lamps with his signature "benrose" and the number "8000" on the bottom. It also says Italy on the bottom. We are trying to figure out how much these two lamps are worth and where to try to sell them. Any help would be appreciated.

Still a decent margin, wull...
I've picked a few for pennies and turned a couple hundred dollars on them. gotta seek out the collectors/dealers for specific artists, but totally worth the labor hours spent. Subject matter is also key, got a Merli in the shop right now for 10 bucks, probably going to give it away, dealer on your side of the pond laughed at me because it's real common  ;D
