Are these resin made to look ivory?  and what does the cord look like?  I also notice a sticker on one of them, what does it have on it?

   Based on the motif and the overall looks.  I would say those are some wonderful Tourist Souviners from a tropic visit.  Age and Value guess would be somewhat hard to establish.  Post 40's for sure, but pre 70's would be the range I would place these lamps.  Value would be what a good collector of lamps or Tropic motif seeeker.  Marble base is a boost but just a bit, these are wonderful unique looking but have Tourist written all over them.
