Thank you for showing this - to me and to all people who receive mail posted in this mailbox, it's a special and dear one!
P.S. I still don't know the right word in English: mailbox or letterbox?! In Dutch we call this public one 'brievenbus' (which in English literally means 'letter bus'), and also the private 'box' (in a door or a box outside the house or in row on the ground floor of a flat) is called 'brievenbus'. While a 'mailbox' in Dutch means 'post box', the P.O. Box... Is it confusing, and are there different words in all of your languages, too?
I have also problems to distinguish among *mailbox*, *postbox*, *letterbox*... I think there are differences between British and American English.
In Spanish is always *buzón*, and in Catalan *bústia*. For P.O. Box we use also this words, or we can say *apartado postal* (Spanish) or *apartat postal* (Catalan).
I love to see this mailbox!!! Beautiful!
