1750-1820
Of compressed, rounded form supported on a raised oval footrim, with shoulders sloping to a cylindrical neck and flat lip, the bottle overlaid in ruby-red on a 'snowflake' ground and carved with a continuous scene, on one main side in relief with a fisherman standing on a sampan reeling in his catch, shaded by an overhanging pine tree growing from a grassy bank, the reverse with a woodcutter carrying wood over his shoulder, crossing the river on a wood-plank bridge towards a rocky, grassy bank.
