Torelli Wheelset?
I haven't been able to find very much info on similar wheels, or on this company. Can anyone provide information regarding this wheel set?
Thanks in advance for any insights provided.

You said you couldn't find any info on the company but it's the first thing that comes up on a Google search. I'm guessing the wheelset in your pic isn't on their current website because they're not a current model.

Even their site doesn't have an "About Us" section or a history of the shop. It has no information regarding their products other than what's currently offered. No wikipedia page, no threads comparing their frames or products to others here or otherwise.
I'm not interested in shopping, I'm just trying to get consumer opinions about the brand and my product. I'm sorry if my initial post was too vague for your liking, it was purposeful in order to incite a wider swath of responses, with the hope that this could be useful to people other than myself in the future.

I found a little more, hooray for me. Posting for anyone in the future: I've confirmed with Torelli that the wheels in my attachment are Torelli "Wide Guy" wheels, a deep dish alloy rim sold in the 90's. The rims were fabricated by Gipiemme, and seem to be identical to their "Tecno" model of the same vintage.
