Darcy (Butterfly Mark) French Vase
Ohio:
At one time I thought I had a site that included Darcy, but when my PC crashed two years ago I was not able to recover everything. I would greatly appreciate any information/links etc. for Darcy since the only thing I can recall was that it was French cameo. I picked up this vase today & paid a bit for it, but I recall actually seeing it in the link I used to have. Thanks for anything anyone can offer. Ken

Frank, I guess I'm missing something. I tried putting is Cecile Darcy & Darcy Glass into the search box on the linked auction site & came up empty on both the glass & the artist. I tried goggling Cecile Darcy & came up empty as to an artist & designer. Can I ask how you found her name associated with the glass? Thanks, Ken.

I found it on that site but used French search terns, there were three or four landscape paintings and one cameo piece. As I had to register to access the archives and realised it was 5am I decided it was time to go to bed instead. It was a tough hunt but I thought that if one piece of glass was signed that there must be some record somewhere. I actually found three other references but they were all pdf and one was a bad pdf so could not see what was in their. The link I gave had pictures in their archive.
The Guerlain thingy appears to have a matching signature.
Of course that still leaves a maker to be found!
