專家說明

This bottle is based on a Western glass original. Such double-bodied glass bottles for oil and vinegar are not uncommon in the seventeenth Century. See Howard and Ayers, China for the West, 1979, p.59, pl. 14; and Jörg & Van Campen, Chinese Ceramics in the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, London, 1997, nr. 293, p. 257.
