Wow, I love these lamps. That tiki head is wonderful. I wrote to Roge about some of the lamps to see if they were his from when he had Laguna Lamps in the 60's. Here's what he said. Wendy

This is by Laguna Lamps. This design has not been made again since the 60's.

The top two are Laguna Lamps #102 the bottom is by someone else.

This 8 sided lamp was by Roge or his Laguna Lamps made in 1978 (the year I married Dan).

12"id, 15" od Globe, amber/gold rock. I have made several in the past 6 months, see them on etsy.com. Laguna Lamps made quite a few in the 60's and I remember them as being 10" or 12" but I can't remember if that was the inside or outside diameter. In the 60's the basic shell was fiberglass. What I use now is clear acrylic.

Here are a few that Roge is making now and selling on Etsy.com.

I sculpted the tikis for him to cast.

This is a wonderful thread. I loved finding all the lamps that tie Roge to the tiki palaces of the past. Cheers, Wendy
