Vintage Chinese REVERSE HAND PAINTED CRYSTAL BOTTLE Perfume/Snuff PHOENIX BIRD
Size 2 15/16\" high x 1.75\" wide x .75\" deep. This type of highly decorated bottle was most commonly made in the 1920s and 1930s, and was either used for snuff or for perfume.
Features a hand-cut crystal [not glass] bottle which is very thick and heavy and shaped as a rectangle. The shoulders are slightly curved at top, and the base has an oval foot.
A VERY UNUSUAL/UNIQUE design of a magnificent and lush PHOENIX BIRD in flight wraps around all 4 sides of the bottle. It is actually grabbing its own tail with its beak, which makes it a very fluid looking image. Wonderful.
The skill with which the Artist painted the inside of the crystal is impressive- very minute and thin lines with beautiful expressiveness and form. Meticulous detailing.
Heavy, beautifully made piece. See all pics and use zoom.
Excellent condition. No flaws or damage of any kind to the interior painting. Pristine. No scratches, chips, fading or wear.
Very collectible, a super unique and special piece.

Please note the following, dear fellow shopping enthusiasts:
I strive to give you the best service possible. I am not a dealer or professional, just a lifelong collector and enthusiast. I only list items that I think are unique and of good quality. I represent my items as accurately and clearly as I can, and believe it is always better for you to have too much information than not enough! Please ask any questions before offerding, I will happily respond.
Remember, these are vintage items and will have reasonable signs of age and wear which only adds to their personality, appeal and \"funky vintage-ness\". They are not in their original boxes unless noted. I do not excessively clean items or remove age patina, as I want to leave that option for the buyer.
I will promptly ship your item within 1 business day and post great positive response for you once payment is received.
Go Green! I try to re-use clean, almost-new shipping boxes when possible.
I will gladly combine shipping on multiple items for you.
Thank you for looking
