look at the backstamp -

So, I conclude that your piece is high quality 20th century Capodimonte. Most of these sites aren't very informational. When they don't have prices, I think it means that if you have to ask - - - you can't afford it :(
The name of the company is: Tiche Porcellane d'Arte. You can google that, and they have e-mail. Perhaps they can enlighten. Best wishes, KB
