Re: lamps
Wow, I don't know that I'd pay more than $100 for a lamp, but that's not a choice on your poll! What kind of lamp are we talking about here?

Re: lamps
It's on sale today for 30% off but it originally cost $295. So it would be 206.50. Currently my lamps cost less than $100 each so this would be a huge jump up for me. http://www.horchow.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=cprod78900012&parentId=cat9590737&masterId=cat000097&index=0&cmCat=cat000000cat1590731cat000097cat9590737
I also love this one from Mitchel Gold but I am not sure how much it costs. I think it is most likely to be about 200. http://www.mgbwhome.com/GENEVIEVE-TABLE-LAMP-P9692.aspx
The last one is from restoration hardware and it is the most money. I love it but cannot see paying these prices so I am wondering if I am crazy to want these lamps. http://www.restorationhardware.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod1156338&categoryId=cat1597020

Same here. None of our lamps are anywhere near $100, and I can't imagine paying that much in the future, either.

Re: lamps
I would spend over $100 if it was an AMAZING lamp. But with so many knock offs now, you can find great looking lamp, nice quality too, not just cheap for under $100. Or I get them on sale.

Re: lamps
I generally spend no more than $100 on a lamp. However, my daughter-in-law has bought some beautiful lamps that cost between $200-$300 each, some which were bought at Horchow like the first one you posted. You really can tell what great quality they are. Good luck with your decision!

Re: lamps
I'm in your boat - trying to get DH on board with spending $150-200 for a few lamps.

Re: lamps
Ok so it was my birthday this past week and I received money. Am I insane - I think I am going to say I am spending the money on the lamps? I am crazy right? DH leaves all decorating to me but he does have a say on budget or if he absolutely does not like it....
and now that I read on barb's thread about college costs maybe I need to rethink purchasing lamps....

I spent $220 EACH on my bedroom lamps.
I wouldn't pay that money for the first two lamps you posted - the colored ones. I feel like I could find those cheaper.
I would pay an arm and a leg for the RH lamps. Those are GORGEOUS. I've been looking for a lamp for my LR. I may have to buy that accent lamp.

Re: lamps
If you could find them cheaper please let me know where. I am completely ok with that. I have loved the RH lamps for a few years. I love them so much. I may get one for my living room. Unfortunately DH is not on the same page as me. I love that lamp so much. It happens to be the knock off. The original one for that lamp is over $500.

Re: lamps
$100
That's the closest I could find - with the edges on the lamp... kwim? Nothing with a crystal base like the ones you posted...
I searched blue table lamps on lampsplus.com

Re: lamps
It is the clear crystal part juxtaposed with the colorful lamp that I love. To me the colorful part seems overdone and I could find that anywhere. I liked how they were different. I will have to try home goods again.
