Hmm, I don't know, it seems that vases by Marcel Guillard / Willy Wuilleumier sell at pretty fancy auctions... but to see the auction results one must log into the auctionhouses' websites. But I found a pre-auction estimates on one for $2000-$3000, but it it didn't have a a photo, so this could be be wildly inaccurate.
 

Thanks that is more than I have come up with. I don't know a thing about pottery. But you guys have my heart pumping. :tongue3:

Thinking of putting on ebay with 300 reserve. Any thoughts or should I sell some other way? Any advise is welcomed.

do you have the lid for this piece? you would increase the value if you find one.
 

I'd get a hold of an auction house like Christie's and talk to them before I'd put it on Ebay

Not sure a lid goes on it. I have not seen a picture to indicate either way. If you have seen a picture please direct me to it. Thanks.


Sniffer I wondered about that. Might try to find a contact. Thanks

You need to take it to a well respected dealer first.There were a lot of counterfeit items made to represent the art-deco period.I hope this is not the case.You should be able to find an appraiser in the KC area.Goodluck buddy,got my fingers crossed.

Yuck so that was what that gray paste stuff was. Just kidding.
Wow just-geese that was great information. I sent an email to the contact you suggested.
Thanks everyone hope it is worth something.
