    I grabbed this piece in an estate auction and I’m having trouble getting an accurate view of its value. The estate had numerous rare items and I’m starting to think this is one as well. It’s from the Royal Adderley Dances of the World Series but I can’t get an idea of the year. The little info I did find says that it was a rare piece because it was a risky figurine of the time due to her exposing her legs. Any help finding out any additional info would be greatly appreciated.

    @Timasand - you'll probably get more lookers in the 'Pottery, Glass, Porcelain' category, instead of furniture.

    I don't think we have a 'mod' online right now or they could move it for you.

    "Good antique condition"?? The Royal Adderley name didn't even exist until the 1950's. :rolleyes:

    Maybe that means the condition is not as good as vintage?;)
    That can't have been a problem at the time she was made, but it was an issue when the cancan was first danced.:)
