Featured Christofle silverplate oceanliner peppermill

It is about 3 inches high.
I have an email from the French Line museum saying the emblem is from Ship named Paris commissioned in 1921. From what I read, this ship was struck and burned in 1939.
It has a Puegot grinder.
There is some wear to the plating in back. There is also a dig in front below emblem.

Thanks for reading.

Here is one on the French ebay, though not sold:

Listings, prices looks ambitious but I've come across more in the same price bracket:

It doesn't show when I click on the link. The Normandie is a bigger name than the Paris, but I don't know how that affects the value. The Paris was also lost in a fire.

 

It is a different model though.

Looking at the asking prices for your model, a lot of them are in the same range, even if they are for a lesser known hotel. So the asking prices could be based on the fact that it is Christofle, which is known for quality silverplate.

 

I would think that you could get about 150-200 or thereabouts since it's a cross collectible. Ship stuff collectors as well as Silver/Christofle collectors. I noticed that those other listings had really polished theirs to a high shine. That always helps. Do you think a former passenger appropriated it? Someone's souvenir. I read your link and it seems like the Paris had a hard life, she was certainly accident prone. Recounting the number of times she was run aground suggested a drunk captain.

 

You'll get a nice profit.
