Dear Marcos,
 
      That is an interesting Shandong bottle.
      It looks like it could almost be 1868, but I'm not sure the Shandong artists were painting that early.
I could have seen 1890s, but based on the cyclical date it has to be either 1868 or 1928, so it must be the latter.

     George's comment that it looks like multiple artists and signatures, sounds interesting, and indeed it looks like a scroll
done as a joint effort by  a number of artists.

     I'm not an expert on Shandong. Better Steven, Charll, or Pat. But I will be waiting to see how they weigh in.
Best,
Joey
