Dear George,
I do not see comments from Joey here. To what are you referring? I am not understanding the tree branches, are them referred to another bottle?
Dear Pin, nice bottle, very nice but I think that Charll is right, the natural cracks are suggesting that the former piece of jadeite is not of very good quality. The quality of hollowing is very important here. If the cracks are stained by handling, you should let the bottle immersed in water with an enzyme based detergent for some hours and then wash them with some pressure, may be the tap water is enough.
Kind regards
Giovanni
