The detail on this bottle is just amazing to me.
On one side is a family on a sampan, one is fishing, and each person is doing something different.
On the other are two people in a garden.
The mark on the bottom is written in the older version of Chinese script (seal marks) and reads "Chia Ch'ing Period Made." But the symbol for "Period" is an even older version of the word. I have posted this mark for discussion on the Gotheborg site and will report back the findings.

a very nice piece to how to they do that on some thing so small
Hi Master - it's my understanding they made molds - pressed the clay into the design on each side and then put the two sides together with slip and then touched up the design. After firing once, they would then paint and fire again.
