The translucent surface reveals subtle bands of brown, gray and amber tones, with irregular inclusions resembling eyes, adding striking visual character. Smoothly polished and well-proportioned, the bottle exemplifies the natural beauty of agate favored by later Qing Dynasty artisans. The long vertical bottle ends in a beautifully carved raised round foot. The round shoulders end in a short round neck. It is matched with a brown agate stopper on a black disk. The core is made of cork. This bottle with its long skinny form is easy storage in one's pocket. The bottle is probably made in sometime in the 20th century. See less
