Hi. Looking to see if anyone might recognize the maker of this amber colored high quality rose bowl/vase that mimics alligator skin? It appears to be from France, or Europe as Cuir means Leather or Hide in French. Lalique?! Probably not, but I can always hope! Any ideas? Thanks!

I've never seen this pattern before.  Maybe it's something from a little studio...but then I'd expect it to be marked.  Wonder if there's some kind of mark under the sticker?  Just for the fun, I ran the barcode through my iphone, but it didn't recognise that number.    :pb:

I believe this barcode indicates a Baccarat item known as the Cuir vase. See 2nd item on this page for a clear one:
http://www.the-forum.com/glass/baccabb.htm. If you carefully remove the label you may find a tiny Baccarat acid stanp below it.
