<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 373686, member: 5833"]Stopper #4 is very generic. My mother had a pressed glass bowl full of orphaned stoppers, most of them faceted like that. She just liked the sparkle. (I do too & kept some of them, along with all the prisms she had acquired.) My immediate thought was that #4 is a replacement. Think AJ is right, not original to any of them, but does echo the shape of the bottle.</p><p><br /></p><p>Agree with everyone, but if the issue is how were they paired before being separated for packing, suspect this is about right. Maybe try swapping #s 1 & 3? #1 looks top heavy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
