My guess is this is quite new..

George, upon an initial look that was may thinking also.  But know imagine the bottle as a enameled Guyue Xuan glass piece.  The configuration is about right.  I think the body form would  still indicate a later Guyue Xuan style blank, and thus I'm not yet sure whether it is an old or modern bottle.  If I get the chance I'll try to review some to the Guyue Xuan glass literature to see if there are any bottles in this form.
