Double your traffic. PAIR: Opulent Antique French Opaline Vase Pair, HP Raised Gold and Silver All items and photos are the express property of Antiques & Uncommon Treasure. No reproduction without prior written consent. If you like what you see, be sure to We'll be sending out sale notices and special deals to our 'Favorites' customers. A spectacular pair of fine old French opaline vases, each one hand decorated in thick gold and silver enamels that rise from the surface like jewels. The pair are perfect for use at table or on your mantel, or atop a pair of wall-mounted bracket shelves. With or without a bouquet, these are exceptionally beautiful. They date to Napoleon III era, (approx. 1850-70) or perhaps a bit earlier. They are in remarkably fine condition, and it's rare to find the old matching pairs, both still intact. Nice sized, they'll show off a dozen roses in each, or your own beautiful bouquets. Very good to excellent condition, with little loss to the ages apart from a light bit of rubbing to the gold around the upper rim. The raised gold and silver that decorates the set is just superb - opulent and will take them from French silver settings through a meal to the vermeil settings at dessert, and still match everything perfectly. Jack brought me red roses, which we're showing in these, but they truly just beg for some white roses mixed in with daintier florals for a really elegant table. Time to plan a party, isn't it. Image Hosting by Ruby Lane Return Policy: We always honor a 3-day return on our items, and guarantee them to be as described. Money back, less shipping costs, which are not refundable, so ask questions if necessary. We're easy to deal with.Shipping and Handling Policy: You are very important! Our fine inventory is very important. And your ranking of our performance is also very important! We wish to keep our 4.9 - 5 star ratings in all categories. Customer satisfaction is paramount with us, so if you're thinking we have not deserved your highest marks, please contact us and allow us to be sure your concerns are completely satisfied before you rank us. We aim for 5-star transactions every day, and depend upon you to tell us directly if we have not yet met that standard for your transaction. Thank you! We most often use USPS for our shipping needs but will be happy to ship by another carrier if you prefer.We charge only actual postage & insurance, never a handling fee and never for packaging materials. Ebay is now requiring that our clients rank us on "shipping". The shipping price, speed and handling are actually under the sole control of the delivering postal agency, not Antiques & Uncommon Treasure so please remember that and leave us high DSR rankings. As always, please also feel free to contact us if you have any problems or concerns, we'll do what we can to ensure a happy and mutually enjoyable transaction.Insurance has been eliminated as an option by ebay, forcing us sellers to either ship your items without insurance or assume that expense also. We always insure our items BUT, more importantly, pack them extremely well knowing that most are not replacable. Again, damage in transit, while rare in our experience, is due to the postal agency handling and not caused by Antiques & Uncommon Treasure. Please remember that when leaving DSR ratings. Thanks! Our shipping days are Tuesday and Friday, paid items will be shipped on the first shipping day after payment is recieved (except when special circumstances exist). We prefer to use USPS whenever possible, and require all packages to be insured. If you prefer another method of shipment, please mention it. We charge only actual expense of shipment/insurance, except in the case of larger items which must have special wood crates built. Wood crate charge, when applicable, is a flat $35.00 in addition to actual postage & insurance charges. Other Information: 8.75% sales tax applicable as of A... read more
