This has no age to it, but I liked the artwork and it was cheap. The painting is continuous all the way around the bottle. What's interesting is that it is put together in panels.
THANK U to kyra/Pascale for solving my location problem!
Thanks to everyone who came by for a gander.

Really detailed. Great score Bonnie.
Venice isn't it?
PCC - it could be. I haven't a clue as I don't recognize the buildings.
That is really nice and a great deal!!
To me, the design on the stopper kind of looks Islamic or middle eastern, as do some of the buildings on back ???
I was thinking a khol powder bottle, with this kind of stick applicator.
Isn't it turkish, Pic#2 looks like Saint Sophie view? I know you lived in Turkey :-)

Pascale - LMAO! I should have known it was TURKISH. I lived there for three years but don't remember seeing any of these in my neck of the woods.
I looked at the prices of some of these bone bottles.....a fair bit more than what I paid for it!!!! Geepers......
Lol, AGAIN... BARGAIN ;-))))
It does look like maybe Krakow,Poland as well as Venice.
PCC - it's none of those places. I googled the item after finding out it is actually Turkish.
Beautiful!
This is such a cool piece Bonnie, and what really impresses me, is that it was made out of bone!
