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.
FANTASTIC VASE!! GOOD LUCK!!
Thanks sean68!
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...
Goodness, it's beautiful.
