Hi @cpol .The center wreath indicates it's upside-down in your photo. Leaves generally direct upwards.

The piece is by Lucian Gautrait

French, Art Nouveau, circa 1905

Due to the value I suggest doing plenty of research before listing.

You can see the same item here:

any idea of present value in this condition?

someone here clicked my response best - IT SHOULD HAVE GONE TO WastingTime101

[wastingtime101]

I searched the designer a bit and the value is up there. You'll have to research that for yourself. I'm not knowledgable enough to guess.

Go to your post that's marked as a best answer - in the top right corner you can click that tiny down arrow then select something like "unmark as best answer" if you want to change your selection.

I would hesitate to sell on Ebay due to NAD and then getting a different item returned. Lately there are so many scams tolerated by Ebay.

Don't forget to change the best answer. @wastingtime101   earned that solve. It's really easy. Go to the current "best answer's" drop down menu that you used to select your own reply, and unselect it. Then go to @wastingtime101 's answer and do the opposite in that drop down box.
