Hi Charll,

That is so neat, I was actually wondering about that if you can line them up chronologically what will they look like. It's very cool that you have enough to make such a line and show us. Thank you.

Do all these bottle have the inside swirl marks that climbs up the inside wall? Including the last 2 with red color and the white one? Their base looks kind of flat for some reason... did they glazed the bottom of the two red ones?

I did notice a pattern for the blue ones, it starts with 8 circles and then go to 12/13 circles as we get more modern (last blue one is a bit bigger, but 2nd to last of the blue is similar to other). Is that also a way to date porcelain... because the material of the mud is better and can be made thinner? 

Best Regards,
David
