Dear Luke,
I don't know exactly the meaning of the 18 deers. I have a snuff bottle and a hat stand, both decorated with 18 deers, a monkey on the pine tree and a spider net. Never found the meaning of that motif, while it is more common to see a deer, a monkey and wasp.
May I ask you to sign your messages? I have a short memory and I could call you Pookles next time, which I don't know if it is fair or not.
Kind regards
Giovanni
