A lamp that needs an identity

Description

Family has always said it was a real tiffany lamp and my mother remebers her mother saying it was appraised in the 80's and verified that it was real. I am doubtfull but curious. It has been in my family for a long time and either way it is beautiful. If you can tell me who made it and anything about it i would be very grateful.
