Beware! Fake Lalique Signature on Perfume Bottles

Buyers Beware!! I found a vintage perfume bottle set with matching powder box, probably German or Czechoslovakian, post 1940s, with a faked acid mark for R. Lalique on base. It is entirely possible that the seller honestly has no idea that this signature has been faked on their items, but let this serve as a warning to those thinking about purchasing this as authentic R. Lalique.

Seller's description taken right from listing:

"- all sales are final, no returns refunds or exchanges accepted -  please review condition report and view all photos prior to purchase - clear, sparkly, blue art glass from the art deco period featuring gold accenting, gold applied etched plates, and brass metal work.  this is a one of a kind perfume atomizer and must have been made for a special client as there are no others that i have seen, as you see many mass produced pieces on ebay, but never anything to unique and RARE.  it is very large and heavy, and is signed R Lalique France on the bottom of the bottle.   the bottle itself measures 4 1/2 inches across, 3 1/2 inches deep, and 6 inches to the top of the atomizer.   this listing is for the atomizer only but i also have other pieces from this set available for sale on ebay, check them out!  a similar set of only 2 pieces sold at auction in 2019 for $30,000!!! these sets are top of the food chain and were made for the rich and famous.  they are completely unique one of a kind and no two are alike.  to find 3 matching pieces is impossible!"

Seller also has a matching powder jar, also with faked R. Lalique signature on base:

Welcome!

This is not your average perfume blog. In each post, I present perfumes or companies as encyclopedic entries with as much facts and photos as I can add for easy reading and researching without all the extraneous fluff or puffery.

Please understand that this website is not affiliated with any of the perfume companies written about here, it is only a source of reference. I consider it a repository of vital information for collectors and those who have enjoyed the classic fragrances of days gone by. Updates to posts are conducted whenever I find new information to add or to correct any errors.

One of the goals of this website is to show the present owners of the various perfumes and cologne brands that are featured here how much we miss the discontinued classics and hopefully, if they see that there is enough interest and demand, they will bring back these fragrances!

Please leave a comment below (for example: of why you liked the fragrance, describe the scent, time period or age you wore it, who gave it to you or what occasion, any specific memories, what it reminded you of, maybe a relative wore it, or you remembered seeing the bottle on their vanity table, did you like the bottle design), who knows, perhaps someone from the company brand might see it.

Also, if you have any information not seen here, please comment and share with all of us.
