Picked these up for 8$ including shades!!!! Never thought to research them
( Even though I'm a librarian) because they were so super neat and odd I would never sell them. Had a friend offer me $100 recently so I decided to find the real value. ... Let's just say these bad boys are now insured and will be added to the will.
Only could find 1 mention of them on the net though. Anyone with any input especially firmilure with the Westwood company and how collectable the lamps are would live to know more. Turns out I have a few of there lamps.
Your photos are extremely dark. Can you please re-post photos of these lamps taken in natural light?
I looked them up and now I see the design - Buddhas.

But rather than Buddha, they feature goddess Kwan Yin :-)
Thanks And sorry my phone's camera stinks. Posted better pictures now.
The website you mentioned above is all I could find about these and I research and Google for a living. So , rare or odd ?
Thanks for the better pic!
Did you see price asked by 1st Dib seller, I think the very value is between this and your friend's offer ;-D
For rarity, I can't say, but only suppose Westwood made several...
