The first one is a Anthon berg chocolate tin box that looked old to begin with, but when you turned it over you saw a very modern "ingredients" sticker. But the vintage look of the box got me
Anyway, here's the box (you can always click the images for a closer view!):
Isnt it gorgeous?
The other one is all in french:
With the help of Google Translate (My trusty companion), the text at the top says: "Anise of Flavigny Abbey" and the black text at the bottom of the box says "True mark of Anise", but I do think that even Google Translate makes mistakes (THE HORROR!) when it comes to grammar.
And at the bottom of the top lid was a what I first thought to be a pink sticker a kid or something had once put there, because you could not see what it was supposed to be, so I rubbed it gently with my fingers under running water and then filled it with hot water so maybe the sticker would be easier to remove, but then I saw that there were TEXT on it! Plot twist! So I took a photo of it and flipped the image in photoshop (because it seemed like the text was mirrored)
"Anise of Flavigny Abbey, single real/only true mark/brand. Anise scent natural / Natural anise scent."
Edit: They are now renting space to my stamps :)
