Featured I AM WAITING FOR THIS AUCTION TO COME UP BECAUSE I HAVE

4 VERY SMALL (1 7/16th" TALL) Lalique 'HATHOR' "pieces" I'm not sure what to call them........as I can't find what mine are, or from...other than I think, based on what the auction says they look like they're Lalique!!! Found them in Mom's stuff during readying the house to send items to Auction.....and have been sitting in tissue in a 'basket' in a drawer ever since 2003.......this auction coming up has 3 Lalique pieces, of which the little items I own are identical to the one in the grouping!! I've always thought it might be Lalique, and now absolutely cannot find much information on it!!

The auction is: Thursday May 16th at 7:00pm.....​

The grouping for sale looks like this on the site:

Back

although the backs of them are flat-
just showing translucency.....

And enlarged below from the one on the site:


NOW, what would one do with such small things??? OR be used for? IF ANYONE has any idea, I'd LOVE to be enlightened!!!!!! ANY and ALL help/input is GREATLY APPRECIATED, and THANK YOU!!! And I'll see if there might be any value in the included one in the lot for sale!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CURRENT bid for the SALE lot is a hefty $1.00, BTW​

 

when the dawg is ripping up your favourite pillow.....you could chuck one at him...

 

I am not seeing anything by Lalique regarding the King Tut bust. I did see a large crystal pendant from MMA that looks a LOT like the one they are claiming is Lalique. https://poshmark.com/listing/Egypti...UT-STERLING-NECKLACE-65495e8adff94d90a884022b

 

Also, George Duncan is not Lalique and operated Duncan & Sons in Pittsburgh-PA, Company Operated: 1874-1891. That three faces master salt was also reproduced by Wright. I am not seeing where the listing states these are Lalique pieces? I could be misreading - only on my first cup of coffee!

 

I have the three face one. glad to get the possible makers. thanks

 

@laura9797, I totally believe you!!! I could swear I read 'Lalique' in the listing a few days ago and did not dream it up on my own!!! I also re-read it!!! NO mention of Lalique!!!! I wonder if, since it's posting 9 days ago, a viewer might have known/seen that they aren't Lalique and the website corrected it???? To think I wasted a bunch of time posting the images!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But it "Is What It IS", and I thank you for figuring it out!!!! Probably why I didn't find much!! OTOH, I think the necklace you found at the MMA is such a cute idea to make!!!!! Since I have four of them, maybe I could do the same for my nieces!!!! Thank you again!!!

 

There is a individual who owns Rlalique.com who will send threatening emails if you have accredited a piece that is not Lalique. Two different auction houses I work for received such emails and he lists the item, auction listing, auction house on his website. The emails are pretty cranky and not the least bit diplomatic - people make mistakes and there are also forgeries. I don't believe the majority of auction houses purposely try to rip people off. The auction probably received such an email and has had to clean things up.

 

Oh dear!

Exactly. While it is good that the owner of Rlalique.com protects the Lalique legacy, they could do so in a civil manner. I know constant errors worldwide can get on anyone's nerves, but such emails are standard ones, and they can be worded politely.
