Large Chinese porcelain Rose Mandarin water bottle, c.1840, with various figural panels, flowers and butterflies. 19"h.x10"dia.

Bottle is very bright and crisp, some minor wear to gilt decoration at rim and overall as you might expect to see, minor wear to court scenes, lid may or may not be original to piece although floral decoration matches that at the top of the throat. No other evidence of chips, cracks, damages, defects, repairs or restorations noted. Very nice piece.
