One thing that attracts me to purchasing a bottle is lots of caligraphy. Believe it adds to the value and I love the overall look of these bottles.

Every now and then I see a bottle that only consists of caligraphy. They are beautiful !!

Hi,
I just posted three photos of a bottle that has only calligraphy painted inside. I'd love to hear your opinion. I'm guessing you must have an impressive collection and considerable knowledge. I certainly appreciate all your posts and all your efforts. Here is one photo of the front of the bottle.

Not at all Liam..

I collected several bottles about four years ago. Sold them and just recently started collecting again. So my collection is small, but it is growing slowly !

Nor am I an expert by any means.

After searching high and low for a discussion forum dedicated to these beautiful bottles, could not find one anyplace online.

That is what led me to start this one. Very interested in sharing and learning from other collectors.

I can not read any of the different Chinese styles of writing. I get a little help from one of our members ( BIll / snuffbottlecollecter ), and also a little help from another collecter in China in regards to translating any scripts on these bottles.

Neat little bottle though Liam  Smiley

Now I am heading over to see the others you posted !
