Re: Darte Frères Palais Royal No. 21 Candle Holder - Value?
This is an example of "Paris Porcelain" made during the second quarter of the 19th Century, pieces like these were generally perfume bottles rather than candle holders. In very good condition comparable examples often sell for over $350.00, damaged examples about half that amount.
