Hi Steven,

Thanks,  Cheesy I need to get the most bang out of my bucks. It is more exciting to note it like this.

I didn't think the stopper is original as the other one is a little bigger and have the exact same stopper.

I am actually confused at bubble suffused, snowflake and camphor... I just received the Bob Stevens, will it clarify that? I originally thought this is snowflake or camphor, but the catalogues seems to describe the same thing differently. I like snowflake more though... sounds much more poetic. So, will update that.

It will be great as long as it is real. But, I did have to buy it with the 100 sons, 100 ladies in waiting and a small enamel on metal to guarantee the sale will go through. She can't quite recall which ones, but she mention that a pair of bottle is a gift from the Chinese government to her husband when he first went there.

Thanks,
David
