5 French envelopes from of different colors and sizes without letters inside

One of these envelopes date from a time when the postage stamp did not yet exist. It appeared in France from 1850.

At that time, the envelopes as we know them today were very rare. The envelopes were created from a folded sheet six to ten times.

The letters were at that time often closed by a wax stamp, still present on some letters.
