    That what I told Antoine too, but the work has been well done, so the overall look is (more than) ok.

    I never saw a back that preserved, the gold that mark the days is really neat.

    Nice! I'm assuming this is ACTUALLY of the empire era, and not styled after it?

    Ahah, no this one is actually a real one, and not a work of mine ^^

    I wouldn't be surprised if the woodbox was actually a Pradier's. He was in the street Bourg l'Abbé and was also known for his work on boxes.
