Up for auction is a Chinese brown ware pottery rice wine bottle dating from the 1860s or 1870s with no cracks or chips, quite a beautiful example of the Chinese potter’s art. This is part of a collection of Chinese artifacts dug at a site on the old Central Pacific Railway right of way near Battle Mountain, Nevada which I purchased many years ago.  About 6 1/4 inches high and 4 3/4 inches wide, and unusual because it is signed on the bottom. Please have a close look at the photos, judge condition for yourself and ask any questions before you bid.   

The item will be shipped within the U.S. by USPS, $15.00 for shipping and handling.   Shipping outside the United States is through the eBay international shipping program.  I offer combined shipping which may reduce shipping charges.  Buyer has thirty days after receipt to return the item in original condition, at buyer's expense, for a full refund.  I take selling on eBay seriously and make every effort to describe each item and its flaws which are not obvious from the photos in detail. Please contact me before opening a case with eBay or leaving any negative feedback and I will do my best to solve any problems.
