George,

When I saw this one on ebay it looked like a typical work of Zhao Zhiyun, and likely matches up well with other bottles by this artist that were sold by David Osborne.  I would not be surprised if this bottle you just purchase originally came through David.  Here closer look at the Mulan bottle in one of my first postings and query's to the Forum.  I look back on these early postings and I'm amazed as to how far my learning curve has come since than.

Great line work, detail, and color use are much more vibrant than what David's photos are portraying.

Ah yes.. Certainly see the resemblance now Charll ..  Man, oh man... That is an especially nice thread from back early days of the forum !
