Lot 127 - Collection of 81 different Champagne capsules (muselets) A collection of Champagne capsules from well-known and small champagne houses. No duplicates and no "generics" or commemoratives. All are in good condition and are "real" capsules, not those manufactured just for collectors. This is as good as it gets. You have to sort through a lot of capsules to make up a collection of this variety and quality . Many have the Lambert (2010- see below) page and item number on their back in (easily removable) spirit-based ink. For individual capsules and small sets see my UK and French-based auctions via "See other items" Collecting Champagne capsules, also known as "Plaques de muselets" is an unusual pastime in English-speaking countries. It is a great way to become familiar with the vast range of Champagnes available, as well as sparkling wines. The main reference book for placomusophiles, now in its 10th edition, is "10eme Repertoire des Plaques de Muselets du Champagne" by Laurent Lambert. ISBN No 978-2-9529822-3-8 Non-French speakers should not be put off, as it is mainly pictorial with very clear and simple descriptions. A similar volume is available for French sparkling wines produced outside of the champagne region.. Capsules will be posted in a padded envelope. Fixed price shipping wordwide - see details.
