[QUOTE="KylieS, post: 4486465, member: 22292"]Can you not carefully prise off the back of the frames? Usually just a matter of bending back the little metal clips that hold the back panel in place then carefully lifting it out. You should be able to easily replace the back after you've had a look though you may need to replace the tape. These look later than aesthetic movement to me and the colours seem a bit too bright and varied for that period. (But I'm more a faience gal, so perhaps this is normal for porcelain?) I can certainly see why you think French, but they could be Japanese or another 20th c homage to the French style. Either way you need to look at them to know what you have ;) good luck[/QUOTE]
