1980? Nine champagne muselet caps from Veuve Cheurlin, picturing each a fable of La Fontaine. $35 for the set of nine from Bertrand Cocq, Calonne-Ricouart, France, Sept., ‘20
Now here is something new – and a new group of collectors, known in France as “placomusophiles.” A muselet is the wire cage that fits over the cork of a bottle of champagne, sparking wine, or beer. The quality of illustration here in a small curved surface is quite high!

2020? Numbered set of Six champagne muselet caps marked "Champagne." Each of the six has a number. €6 from Alain Jouglet at "Les Capsules d'Alain," Loivre. , France, Dec., '20.
I had presumed that the first set I found just recently was unique. Here is another set! And there are more to come! At least one of the images here (FS) is taken from Bon March€'s "Oriental" trade card series.
