Welcome to Opium | 16th to 19th century antiques & curios | "Out of black-edged plates they had eaten Russian rye bread, ripe Turkish olives, caviar, game with truffle gravy, chocolate cream, puddings, nectarines, grape preserves, mulberries and black-heart cherries; they had sipped, out of dark glasses, wines from Limagne, Roussillon, Tenedos, Val de Penas and Porto, and after the coffee and walnut brandy had partaken of porter and stout." (Joris-Karl Huysmans, 1884)
