[QUOTE="R. Antonis, post: 283335, member: 3943"]Hi everybody, I just can't stop posting :p This is another item I bought last week, I just haven't received it yet, but I will this week... And of course I'll post some better pictures then. This one: *Opaline "Bulle de Savon" Trinket Box *White Glass *Bronze or Brass Mount (I'm not really sure) *Height: 9 cm/ 3.54 inch. ___________________ I've bought, posted AND sold a similar one a couple of weeks ago... That one was a vintage one, and it seems like this one has a better quality mount. Although when I look at the actual antique ones, they seems to have a bronze (mostly ormolu) mount, and the glass doesn't look thàt thin, even though it's "Bulle de Savon", which means: (Soap) Bubble, referring to it's thinness. A couple of examples: 1) [URL]http://www.ebay.com/itm/322412828493?rmvSB=true[/URL] 2) [URL]https://www.rubylane.com/item/146467-17A-00070/Antique-French-Bulle-de-Savon-Opaline?search=1[/URL] 3) [URL]https://www.rubylane.com/item/146467-RL000207/Antique-French-Bulle-de-Savon-Opaline?search=1[/URL] 4) [URL]https://www.rubylane.com/item/513876-352/French-19th-Century-Opaline-Glass-x27Bulle?search=1[/URL] ___________________ Mine's still pretty though. Just not sure (yet) whether it's antique or vintage. Plus I believe it's French.. Thank you very much again! ;) R.
