A young American soldier called James served in France during World War Two. As he strolled down the street, he saw an antique shop with a stunning opaline glass box in the window. Even though the glass had lost its gold coating, it was still in fine condition.
James wasted no time in entering the store to inquire about the mysterious box. Madame Dupont claims the box, which is flawless, was manufactured in France some time between 1850 and 1920. James bought the crate because he wanted a piece of French heritage in his home.
