Title: Raintree lamp
Post by: antiquerose123 on January 01, 2008, 07:00:44 AM
Hi just thought I would post here (???) my old Rain tree lamp.....anyone remember these.  I have mine hanging, and it still works.  It is almost 3 meters in lenght....from tip to tip....it is quite large.

I also found on on YouTube, same idea, but different style/design... http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=q8WwEAl-dxc

It is made of plastic, and of metal......I love  :love: mine...even today..

Here are a couple of sites:

I did receive a response from a guy named MARK ATKIN that said the following to me about this lamp, quote:

" Nice lamp, thanks for the photo. It does look like a higher quality model, with the double row of lines and more ornate base than usual. Sorry for the delay, but I'm just getting caught up on Christmas vacation backlog, including e-mail.
Normally I'd offer to put your photo online but I don't have time to maintain my rain lamp webpages anymore, unfortunately."



So I found this out...I had sent this before Xmas....see how *behind*  ( :mny: ) I am......lol
