    I’m told that these were handmade in Paris , they were bought some 30 years ago, they are heavy so I believe that they are glass .
    Would you agree that they are French ? 80’s 90’s ?
    I would have said 60’s if not for the plastic bulb holders.

      I now think 1990's. Are the glass cubes possibly lucite?
    2. PhilDMorris PhilDMorris, 3 years ago
      Possibly after 1990's, I see some of the lamp such as base looks to be made of resin, do you have pic of underneath the base ? The bases look moulded possibly of resin.

      Hi , 1990 would coincide with when the previous owners visited Oaris . I have added a photo of the base . I didn’t think they were resin because of their weight ( 10 kg’s each ) and the glass feel .

      Just to add that the inline switch has “ made in Italy “ on it .
    5. AndyB, 3 years ago
      Now I’m thinking that the shape of the base cable channel etc wouldn’t be possible in glass .
