Dear all,

I am resending what I posted a short while ago ( it might have failed to be sent off ).

2017 has been an enjoyable year for me on this Forum, reading all the interesting sharing and lamenting ( over missed auction bid ! ). On this last day of 2017, I wish all of you and your loved ones a Happy and Fruitful 2018.

I am posting one of my favourite inside painted bottle, hoping it will not add cold to most of you living in the winter zone right now ! Keep warm !

Regards,
Inn Bok

Dear Inn Bok,

      Happy [Civil] New Year!

      I agree with Giovanni - superbly painted bottle! Who is the artist, etc.?
Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you in Singapore in a few weeks, G-D Willing.
Best for 2018 to all on the Forum and to their families,
Joey

Dear Joey,

The snuff bottle ( 89mm high ) I posted was painted by Li Guangli ( 李广立 )in 1993. He was of the Ji School in Hebei, and started his IP career in 1978. Unfortunately, he had a blood clot in 2008.

I attach another bottle of mine done by Guangli and Peng Qi ( 鹏启 ) in 1990. Guangli did the calligraphy.

Looking forward to your forthcoming visit to Singapore.

Best wishes to you in this first day of 2018.

All,

Inn Bok thank you for the well wishes in 2018, and sharing the winter scene.  A beautiful bottle that is very much to my collecting taste.  It is just a couple of hours before mid-night here on the west coast of California, and I too want to wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year.

Below is another winter scene from 10 years ago.  It is a quartz bottle that is just a over 2 inches in height without the stopper.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Charll

Dear Inn Bok,

      My personal preference is for the painting in the first bottle you posted, but both are very fine.

Dear Charll,

      Your Zhen Yu bottle reminds me that I must post my 5 bottles by Zhen Yu, which have been sitting on my desk for months, it seems. One is by Zhen Yu and his wife, Li Zhen; the other 4 are by Zhen Yu alone, whose legal name is Pan Jaifang.

Best to all,
Joey

Dear friends,

Thank you all for appreciating the bottles.
Like Joey, I like the winter scenery in the first bottle I posted. It is very classical in painting style.

The second bottle was one of my first calligraphy bottles where the calligraphy standard is not that fantastic.

Dear Kaja,

Sorry for late reply. Just read the thread.

I bought the ' winter ' bottle in Oct 1993. The bottle was painted in the same year.
