Lalique doves
« on: August 05, 2011, 07:54:43 PM »
Hi everyone

Is this worth going after?  I don't know much about Lalique - does anyone know about when it was made?

Thanks!!!

Is it a fake?  I've just been to a different site and they say it may be suspicious.  The signature looks amateurish to me.

Hi Poppy,  the signature picture doesn't enlarge on this thread...can you post a new picture of it for us please?

Are you using someone else's picture of the dove?  If so, just put an url link, not their picture, I think it beaches copyright.  If it is your own, then that's OK.

I think it is called the 'Sylvie' vase, and this one looks pretty authentic, and is signed and labelled.

HI Rosie  :hi:

That's the one that this website:

http://rlalique.com/r_lalique_suspicious_online_auction_listings.html

...says is suspicious and the signatures and the label are the same. 

I got all excited and wobbly when I saw the Goodwill one and now I have calmed down after googling it and seeing sooooo many of them for sale.

But many thanks  :kissy:
