structurally super sound and sturdy

I think probably these were made as hitching rings

and I believe with glass straws used for blowing the base level of watercolor paint) and airbrushed designs

Pair of 19th Century French Rebus Plates with Solutions on Reverse PET can structurally super sound and sturdyI just can't resist a rebus when I come across one, whether hand drawn, or engraved, or printed as transfers on dessert plates, as here. I found this pair in PA, but they are French, produced by J Veillard, Bordeux, mid 19th c. I believe. And indeed, these were used for serving the dessert course, with one meant to puzzle out the solutions while enjoying their sweets then one could flip the plate to find the solution on reverse. I'm not smart, or
