Dear Giovanni,

I also noticed these bottles. My thinking was also they had to be modern and like you the similarities between several other bottles he was selling confirmed it for me (though now Adrian mentioned they were for sale in the Chiswick auction). Very nice stoppers though! Was considering putting in a bid just for one of the stoppers, but the bids have already gone too high for me to bid just for a stopper... I agree it is scary some of bottles that are coming onto the market making it harder and harder to collect authentic examples... I'm very interested to see how high these bottles may go for!

Best,
Luke
