Hi  Geoff

Nice  bottles,  but :

a)  I agree   with you  that it  looks  to be  signed   Wang Qian  王 千

b)  Why  should  an  artist that   good  fake    a  Master's  name  ?

I  don't  have a  lot  of  stuff  on the  real  Wang  Qian  (  you  can check the  DB)

But  what  I do have   shows a  completely  - and much better -    writing  style

Incidentally : as regards the  real  Wang Qian :  it's  surprisning  that  so  few  of his  bottle  pics  are   available .  I  wonder   where   all  his  bottles  are  today ?

Cheers
Peter
