Brigitte,

Inside painted bottles are not my area of specialty. So I'll let others comment on these bottles for you.

BTW, are the 'marble' stoppers glued on? If so, can they be removed without damaging the bottles? I ask because the bottles will look much more attractive with proper stoppers on them.

Regards,
Tom

Tom, I agree they would look better without the marbles and I haven't even attempted to clean them.  I'm reluctant to damage them in any way, so have not tried to remove the glue.

So sorry, but I just can not make out the scripts on either bottle.. Except to say that the second bottle looks to be Middle Period Shandong school.

Like Tom mentioned, much more attractive with stoppers, but if nothing else, those marbles can go.. Just removing them would be an improvement Smiley
