It's not an opera house, it's a Morris Column used for posting advertisements. They're common in many European cities. The charm reflects the style of those in Paris, but it could be almost anywhere.

  • do the words around the top (Martini on the charm, Tera something in this picture) mean something, or identify a location? Commented Jul 2, 2019 at 23:17

    Not as far as I can tell, @Kate. Images of the Parisian columns mostly have Theatre or Spectacle around the top and carry posters for theatre shows and other events. Martini, I'd guess, refers to the famous brand: yet more advertising. Perhaps the makers of the charm struck some product placement deal with Martini & Rossi.

  • Martini is an alcohol brand, they probably wanted to represent that in the charm.
