Une coupe de champagne?

Not all the stalls at the brocante on the 1st May sold junk. This one specialised in silver. This beautiful bowl was on sale for 2700 euros - I didn't ask if the champagne was included - anyway what you see here is doubtless sparkling white wine and not the real thing.

    Wow. Silver plate? Or the real thing. It looks great to me. Somebody must have lost some money at Monaco. I wonder if it sold. You sure took a nice photograph of it and it would also look good in a travel magazine.

    I am anxious for you to see the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak that came to Brookville, Ohio yesterday. It is the first one I have seen since we moved here 44 years ago.

  3. I like Abe's comment - someone must have lost big at the roulette!

    Do you think sparkling wine becomes champagne once served in those silver glasses?

  5. 2700 Euros. That translates, I think, to about $3300. A bottle of champagne would be a nice lagniappe.

  11. I love the champagne bowl but not the silver stemmed glasses. So how much would that cost? :-)
