It won't be in Marchilac as it's not Lalique! It's actually by Verlys, France, in the 'Triangles Perlés' pattern, designed early-mid 1930s.

Here's a larger size bowl from the same series from my collection which has the moulded 'Verlys France' mark:

Hello, and thank you for that information. I notice the larger bowl does not have the "handles" on each side.

The Triangles Perlés pattern was used on a series of tableware in various sizes and styles; some are handled, some not.
