Dear George, if you search on ebay for the item 261828438287 you will see one of the two items that I have on sale by now. More will follow.
Kind regards

Dear all,

It looks like its kinda quite for past weeks, Sorry for my absent as well. Some of family issues and busy work plus traveling all the time. I have quit looking for bottles for about a month.

I wish it will be slow down a little in a couple of weeks, so that I can spend some time on my hobby.

-Tom, very nice bottle! Congratulation.

As Joey suggested, it could be Wang Xisan, or Liu shouBen. The only concern I have is the calligraphy is not exciting as most of Wang Xisan bottles. As I mentioned so many times on the Forum. Wang has the best calligraphy at that period, he sometimes also signed for his students without his name. The calligraphy on this bottle looks good, but not wang's level yet. the landscaping is quite good, while the scholar is less painted than the landscaping. I have a bottle unsigned, but confirmed by Wang. you might do a comparison.

Hi guys,

I have been away in Perth for the past week,
spending some time with my son and his wife there.
