Capodimonte flower basket

Description

Inherited this from my grandmother.  Can't find any info on the hallmarks.  They seem to be different than most capodimonte items.  Maybe a fake for all I know.  Has one broken leaf, and a few other chipped ones..  One very noticeable, the others were hard to spot.  Does this have any value?

Capodiamonte is so art- deco. But I want sell my few(3) pieces. I am afraid of chipping, and breaking which me and capodi. Go rounds with this issue. Some urban legend say its a curse upon it founder and the business. Several fans of capodi and salesmen at an outlet in compton told me this 15+ yrs ago. I hope not to jinx you with its legend. Lucky

First time I've heard this story and I've been in the antique business since 1963 ;~) To check prices on capodimonte just visit Ebay, there are hundreds of pieces of it listed every month.
