I inherited these beautiful lamps from my mother. In the base, they both say Made in Italy. The ones with the cherubs say "Ben Rose." Has anyone seen these before?

Thank you for letting me know. There was an error and I didn't realize.
They're nowhere close to my own personal tastes but that really doesn't matter -- the fact that they came to you from your mother would certainly make them meaningful to *you* -- and *that's* the part that matters?! I'm sorry I can't help with any info on them, but if they have the markings you describe it's much more than most table lamps ever had and should make it a lot easier to try to track down their exact history...and this place (and its helpful folks) is a great place to start that process. You're new here (WELCOME, BTW!) so I would suggest you try to add another couple pics (you get 4 per post) showing those markings...someone else may very well recognize something...and don't worry too much about your current pics appearing sideways...that generally somehow 'fixes itself' shortly after new things are posted, maybe because of the diligent work our Moderators and Staff do 'behind the scenes' to keep us all going.

Actually I know something about them as I have had made in italy lamps and figurines before. They are called "capodimonte lamps or figurines" but I usually only see them in lamp form. If you look on images you should find plenty of them !~

I just saw your post and guess what I have the same ones. They were parents.
My family is from Italy.
