<p>[QUOTE="RachelW, post: 9969004, member: 15376"]<p style="text-align: center">Hi all! I've been waiting for these to arrive, and after a delay, today they did! All 5 are from the same seller. I'll divide them into separate threads so nothing gets lost.</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">First up: This is a pair that I bought separately. They're framed together so together they stay! The man was sold as Mozart and she was listed as Sophie Charlotte of Pressia. I'm wondering about the material of the frames...They have some of the patterning of bone or ivory, but in hand they're cool to the touch and very smooth. The sides have an almost plastic quality to them. I can't find any Schreger lines. They're backed in wood and covered in old paper. Sophie's paper has latin and Mozart is in French. Sophie is signed as well.</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839349339160639/IMG_20241007_143655.jpg?ex=670531f8&is=6703e078&hm=77ff8d51b21ae898644450a61cb493bf10e6da16e772f8ae77cdfea5c2ca91f6&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839350291398696/IMG_20241007_143820.jpg?ex=670531f8&is=6703e078&hm=792a6fb644b7bd049089c3bcda558b35eda20ffbcd68aaa26b9695d2e2e0036f&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839400035581982/IMG_20241007_145112.jpg?ex=67053204&is=6703e084&hm=4d8980d5f6784b17df8d8788802b6c6bd031650b1d47099d923fc839e5c27611&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839399150846055/IMG_20241007_145020.jpg?ex=67053204&is=6703e084&hm=29fe2de3fbc30b4ea95a621bdee6493f174e2391846b5607f7bac6462f0d6cd9&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839351155298415/IMG_20241007_144443.jpg?ex=670531f9&is=6703e079&hm=b84ba249a13be459b062efadc2e8bc210f36d856bd54e14b0f634f6cfb73f63e&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839348324139092/IMG_20241007_142923.jpg?ex=670531f8&is=6703e078&hm=9d9c73be25a413ec8504463ec48d8ea57712618878f5b9bbd26f5fe1a4276372&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/592887112626601984/1292839143604228147/IMG_20241007_142745.jpg?ex=670531c7&is=6703e047&hm=ba683f7b324a860cb4bc552497f53aae60e2aa84c5809028c4150bc7fb8f493d&=" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">Other than 'old', I don't really have an age for these.
