[QUOTE="kyratango, post: 349114, member: 5006"]Ha, Bronwen, I think my set had to be a suite of at least 14 buttons because of the faint engraved Roman number on their back! One bears XIIII (strangely not XIV :bored:). I think too, as you said, it is a Lady’s set, perhaps illustrating a story of a lady thinking of her lover, sending him dove, etc:joyful: And yes, very white but ivory, some Schreger’s lines line can be seen :peeking::pompous: on the upper range right big button, in the second pic (the one once cleaned on white background) Still waiting for appraisal from Drouot Estimations (free online...):smuggrin: Yep, isn’t it great to get a haul at once? ;)[/QUOTE]
