Now that I look at the detail of the figures given their relative size, I have to admit that there seem no real brush strokes and unevenness typically seen.  These IPB artists are masters at making the figures look normal at eye sight but once examined under a magnifying glass the detail is lost.  In your case, the detail is almost too perfect to be painted.  In any case, nice bottles, but I just can not be sure, to be honest....

Sorry if I cast some doubt on these.  It does NOT take anything away from liking them, a lot....
