Adrian,

I do like the glaze on both yours and George's bottles.

Joey,

All is not lost with this bottle from Mr. Quon.  Because I chose this bottle from part of my mother's collection, I also received a still life oil painting of it with a vase of flowers, which my great grandmother painted.  (My sister absconded with the painting and I need to get it back...) She took up painting at age 72, and a few of her surviving paintings included flowers with some of her snuff bottles.  So, for me, this is one of the most cherished in my collection.  As best I can tell, there were 3 or 4 which came from him, and if I'm able to photograph them from other collections, I'll post later, as it'll be interesting to get forum feedback.

Cheers,

Rheuben.
