Dear Charl,

I agree that starting in the Daoguang period the potters became less likely to take the care that their predecessors did.

Of course the snuff bottle posted by Henric was not made for the export trade, with an inscription as part of the decoration it was most likely made for a literati scholar.

Best regards,

Tom B.
