Just some additional info, while Charll is right about the 'China' mark's continued usage at some point the scratched version of this (in glass) was replaced by a paper label.  I have included this somewhere in a previous post of mine:

Update since my post from 2011, I have seen many (and own) scratched glass bottles marked 'China'

Hi Pat,

Thanks for the link to that early thread. It was before I joined the forum, so I hadn't seen it before.
Picking on George's comment therein (re. an agate bottle) I too have an agate bottle on which I'd never noticed 'China' scratched on the base until I looked at a blow up of a photo my daughter took last year!

Tom
