Dear Giovanni,

Your Yangzhou bottle is lovely. Thanks for sharing it. Well, without going into the details, I reckon that the finishing and overall profile of yours is similar to mine. At least I don't see any major difference. In my opinion, they are both genuine Yangzhou school and may be compared against each other. While those you posted earlier are way off and shouldn't serve as the reference in this case.

I feel happy for you too for having such a decent Yangzhou overlay bottle as well.

Dear Cathy,

I see what you mean, and yes, I too wish to see further discussions on that. But the eBay bottle you showed is again wayyyy off for a genuine Yangzhou. The colors are too vibrant and the motif is too thick. And for its price it's possible to get a fine and genuine Yangzhou bottle in tip-top condition.

Best,
Samson
