    The green on this bottle is so dark that I thought it was black from the pictures, so I was slightly disappointed when it arrived and it was green.
    But after looking at it more, I'm completely happy with it - even though this is probably a modern bottle.

    It features vases overflowing with fruit and flowers on each side, and two seals - a reign mark seal and not sure what the other seal is - both in archaic script.

    The glass must have had some large bubbles in it - there are places in the overlay and on the bottle itself where you can see bubble holes.

    It measures 5.7cm tall.

      Thank you racer4four - I was hoping it was black glass which is kind of rare but the very dark green is also lovely
