Yeah its quality! Even the hinges look good. Might have a fiddle with it to make a lapel pin with the button [emoji3]Comment

Poult.... if you find an antiques centre ... the kind of thing you see on antiques shows on BBC2 around 5.30-7pm on weekdays... when they dash around in old cars buying cr@p for auctions... there are more around than you would ever realise... they tend to have quite a lot of glass around at the moment.Originally posted by poult View Post
For some reason decanters arent all that en vogue... so they go for buttons really. Pressed glass is cheap as chips and can be really rather nice. Older lead crystal a little more expensive but until you hit specific makers, they tend to be pretty affordable. My only advice would be give the stopper a good wobble - make sure you have the one that was made with the decanter itself... or you have one that gives a good fit.
and Joss.... handsome sticks and a good find at that age... !"Dear heart, you're talking to a man- a real man- who drinks straight Tequilla, with lime and salt on the rim, and smokes cigars" (J Zavala)Comment

Picked up a parcel from the Post Office today, a recent trade with [MENTION=13417760]Wigan[/MENTION]. A very generous bomb in reply I must say and some gorgeous looking sticks that Im really looking forward to trying.

Postman is my friend this morning! Parcel of Montecristo Petit Edmundos. Due to not paying attention while shopping I ordered the tubos. Handy for travel I guess as I will be taking a few on holiday.
