Roussel Stella Jumelle
The Roussel Stella Jumelle is an early stereoscopic 'jumelle' (binocular-style) plate camera, a body format associated with French manufacturers around the turn of the 20th century. Roussel was better known as a Paris optical maker, and the Stella Jumelle sits within the late-Victorian and Edwardian market for hand-held stereo plate cameras.
Auction data for the Stella Jumelle is extremely thin: the only recorded UK saleroom result we hold is a single hammer price of £240 from November 2007. With just one wholesale auction data point on file, it is not possible to quote a reliable current range or median value in 2026, and any figure today would depend heavily on completeness, optics condition, and the presence of original plate holders.
