How do you identify a Barsony?
1 Answer

To identify a Barsony, turn the item over and examine its base. Nearly all Barsony pieces are marked with the maker's unique system, which uses letters and numbers to identify item type and model name. You can find guides to these markings on trusted online resources to interpret the information on your lamp. Typically, the beginning of the code tells you what the piece is. For example, F was used for a figurine, and L indicated a lamp. As a result, a piece marked “FL” is a figural lamp. Following the letters, there is usually a hyphen and one or more numbers. These numbers correspond to the model. If you need additional assistance identifying your piece, consider enlisting the help of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Barsony lamps and decorative objects.
