I believed it was from Lysimachia, but not sure. Thanks in advance.

Altamura is correct but I would not call it fake, they are too bad to fool anyone.
It seems like it is not made of silver like the real fakes and a cast copy, so a fake of a fake.
The style is so terrible but different from anything I have seen before that some of them are imho masterpieces of modern art.
I have more "fakes" from this artist (1 more )and pictures of some more (would have to look in my database).
What are fakes for some is art for others.

Thank you all for your comments. The photos are blurry and this one is part of a lot that was gifted to me. Now I know why I was unable to find something at least similar to this piece....
