     The reason many collectors prefer a red or orange stopper with a clear (quartz) or white (nephrite jade) bottle, is because it symbolises Yin and Yang.


Dear Joey,

I never knew choices of stopper colour were selected for that reason. I've learned something new.

Best,
Tom

PS: Thanks for explaining that TV game show. Obviously no one-sided results on my poll.  Wink
