Hi Giovanni

Hahaha, yes. It can be use every year!

Actually, it was a souvenir made by a Hong Kong dealer many years ago for his clients.

Merry Christmas!

Dear Richard,
 
       I had one of those, years ago. I gave it away to a Christian friend.
I should post my 'Christmas bottle' here in the 'Happy Holidays! thread' , the one with the red, green and clear paste gems, like the example at the Chester Beatty Library in Dublin.

Steven, could you oblige me?
Thank you,
Joey

Dear Giovanni,

    I've decided to move my 17 or 18 bottles of assorted materials (ie, NOT the Jades or B & Ws in Ireland or the IPSBs in Israel), back to Israel.

    While I love looking at my IPSBs, when I take out a box or two  (though usually, I take out a whole category, such as my Zhou Leyuan bottles, which is 3 boxes (30 bottles); or my Wang Xisan group (13 bottles), etc.), the snuff bottles of assorted materials such as hardstone, organic, etc, are more appealing in a tactile way. I like holding my IPSBs, but need to look at them;  the others I can just hold and enjoy that way. This one will be returning to Israel along with the rest of this small group.
 
Shabbat Shalom and Merry Christmas from Jerusalem,
Joey
