Here is one of my porcelain bottles. I've seen from discussions that the leaf mark was used during the end of the Qing Dynasty. I don't think this has that kind of age. I would say mid 20th Century or modern.

Dear 'Bokaba',

       The bottle is totally modern, but I LOVE the glaze!
Beautiful bottle, even if modern. Seeing modern bottles of this quality, tempts me to start collecting modern wares. And not just modern IPSBs.

Best,
Joey

Dear Brian,

     Thank you. But you really need to change the stopper! It is horrible.  Grin

1. Put a piece of paper over the mouth of the bottle, and crimp it down, so it takes the form of the outside edge of the mouth.  Do same for the hole in the centre.
2. Draw with a pen the line of the edge on the paper.
3. Measure the diameters in mm. and let me know, and I will send you a better stopper, a cork and a spoon.
4. The bottle and stopper should combine to symbolise Yin & Yang. I think Red is Yang, but 'google' it. Probably White or possibly Green are Yin, etc.
Best,
Joey

Dear Joey,
out of curiosity, how did you know that his name is Brian? He did not sign, at least I can't find it.
Kind regards
Giovanni

Dear Giovanni,
 
     I'm psychic! No, YT is correct. He answered a few posts down in the Introduction thread that we could refer to him as Brian or as Bokaba.
Best,
Joey
