Dear Adrian,

     I agree that they are contemporary, but the markings are so beautiful.
I am not happy to hear that someone who considered himself a collector was so dismissive as to damage the bottles that way.
Especially the Lacque Burgaute. How are you to remove something glued onto a surface made up of tiny pieces of mother of pearl and foil? That is shameful.
Thank you for posting them.
Best,
Joey
