Not getting any reference from the net hence suspecting could be a fake

It is not in three of my books. We would need the total height in inches. A picture of the base showing the location of the signiture. And a close up of the signiture because there have been several types.

Is that the color off the glass or is it clear with a wash. Most likely the color of it. It is said that many pieces of R. LALIQUE will turn a peach color under black light. Also they used iron molds often coated with beeswax for release, and many pieces can have a waxy feeling to them. I have not felt that on any of my pieces.
