Dear YT,

    You are right as to valuation! I did not remember that the bottle had achieved over US$30K! But it is so much finer a bottle, and a Bob Stevens AND J & J provenance is very impressive indeed. Though this bottle was not loaned by Bob to the HK Museum of Art show during the 1978 ICSBS convention, nor exhibited at his Mikimoto show at the same time in the Ginza in Tokyo (I was at both.).

    Best,
 Shabbat Shalom,
Joey
