I can not find one of these online. Must be a rice wine or sake bottle. Has a vent hole under chin so there is a hollow place between inside and out.
Hand painted no marks 6 1/2" high 7 1/2" wide 4" thick the bottom rim is very smooth not ground.
Sweet! Here it is! Suntory Whiskey bottle of all things!

Wow thanks never would have thought.
Interesting - this is part of their ETO Bottles commemorating Chinese Zodiac. They do one every year - this year's is year of the monkey. I can't find out when they started these bottles - I found Boar, Horse, Monkey, Snake, Sheep & Rat...
They are not common must have been real good and expensive the whiskey!! The empty bottle worth more than I send on a full one. LOL
If a Google search is any indication - they are not too common!
