[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 1113260, member: 51"]That makes total sense. A little fabric or whatnot to hold the (missing) stopper in. Thanks! I think this will clean up well. That black ink-like mark on the top just came off with a little pressure from my fingernail, so just need to see if I can wipe off some of that verdigris. No chips in the glass which is nice. One thing, I detect zero scent of perfume. And am I ever sensitive to perfume. Wonder if it was never used? The sale was an interesting one, lots of mid-20th century things mostly, but a few antiques.
