Hi Everyone,

I've enjoyed reading thru this post, and will add yet one more to the fine bottles already exhibited.  It measures 2 1/16" and has a glass top.  Because of the thickness of the peanuts and bat relief carving, should I guess this to be a 20th century bottle? Also, the fact that the jujube striations stop short of the carvings? It was purchased in 1961.  Thanks for any comments!

Cheers,
Rube. 

PS- Steven, the wooden example is fabulous!
