    One of the Chinese' specialties was imitation. I love the glass imitation bottles!

    These four are examples of glass imitating shadow agate. You can tell they are glass from the base where you see the different colors all pulled together.

    These are all different shapes and sizes, and bought together from the same person. The smallest would be considered a miniature snuff bottle.
