    Here's a piece I got for $2.50 yesterday-not too old,fascinating or valuable,but it made someone very close to me laugh.About a foot and a half tall and heavy. Same as from our wedding-dejatique ! Champ1.jpg Champ2.jpg

    Didn't realize Gallé had created the floral design. Japanese white anemones in 1902.

    I didn't know it was a 1902 motif either,that bottle always impresses at weddings.

    Big time disco ! I remember in the early 80's we got invited to a party at a nice downtown restaurant (the host had rented the entire place),said host popped open 3-4 cases of Dom Perignon.The guy footing the bill was a 'friend of a friend' who i didn't know too well.I asked him what profession he was in,he replied 'I'm a hedge fund manager',i feigned interest ,and walking away thought-'what the hell's a hedge fund ?'.
    In the coming financial crashes,we found out.

    I remember that bottle. I think someone gave one to my dad in the 70's,
    I am not a drinker at all, in fact the last time I had a sip of the bubbly was 2 decades ago when my brother got married.

    Is it magnum size? Larger? Always wanted to see a jeroboam.

    Gonna look great when you start using it for its intended purpose & it has all that wax dripping down. :D

    I think it holds four 750 ml bottles.I'm gonna stick a big candle in it next to the fruit packing crates where I keep my LP's and turntable.It'll be on the big used wood wire spool we use for a coffee table in front of the bean bag chairs with the macrame' doilies.We got the posters too,the black-light kama sutra ones....grooooovy.

    Songs to dredge out of childhood memories. I think I saw The Way We Were on TV once. A piece of it anyway.
