    Dating this bottle and figuring out the (probably poem) calligraphy on the back is a big priority!

    I have had this one for a while - it's actually among the first ones I bought, so I had kind of forgotten to post it. But it's a good example of a famille rose molded porcelain bottle.

    I'm super excited because several new books came today - I have a couple of Robert Hall books (including Snowy Peaks), a rare book called Hidden Treasures of the Dragon.

      Good research books are so much better and nicer to use than the internet. I'm always excited to find a great new reference!

      it's a very pretty bottle or vase. I haven't seen an old bottle before like this before myself - snuff bottle market so saturated with fakes...

      but interesting to hear what your findings may be! And a nice one for the collection...
