Hi George,

If I am not wrong that bottle should be pained in 庚午(1990).

That is why we should pick up something nice at auction house, the most of old  modern master 's work were sold to Western, at that time, they were only students, and the bottles were not worth that much.

20years passed, all the young collectors are master now , also some old collectors started to clean up their collections, i guess its time to pick up some nice ones out there:) .

Anyway, as long as you have knowledge and good taste, you will find some treasures there:)

I really don't know the actually value of the bottle,If I have to guess, I would guess $1000.00-$1500.00, maybe even more. Sometimes, even the big name will worth $1000.00 Grin you will never know.

Good Luck!!

Steven
