Hi Brian

Yes, your estimate is correct, and it is Shandong style.  A word of advice to you on these.  These are good learning bottles, but their value is not likely to increase much over time, as it is nearly impossible to determine the artist without signature.  I have several dozen of these that I really should dispose of (some shown here under my collection), but I love landscapes, so I kept buying them as a new(er) collector many years ago.  Now they languish in storage because I never get around to selling them, ...

Now as a general rule, and as a much more experienced collector, I only buy signed bottles, or as an exception, bottles where I have a clear idea who the possible artist(s) may be, and have comparison/reference points.
