This "Souvenir" is from Joke's collection, and was made by Anna van Vollenhoven in the first quarter of the 19th Century. A member of Anna's family is married to Prinses Margriet, a sister of Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands.
If you are at the l'Aiguille-en-fete in Paris, Joke would be delighted to meet you and explain the history of these beautiful Souvenirs.
