Hello Giovanni,

Thanks for the comment.  I used a dentist type carving tool that I use for restoring/repairing antique netsuke.  The material is not resin/plastic.  I am familiar with this material as I have several rare netsuke made from antique Japanese plastic.  The material that I scraped from inside the bottle has a chalk/sand(y) consistency very similar to what you get when you scrape raw (not hardened or porcelain) ceramic.
