Lot Essay
Wanya Xuan, the Studio of Refined Amusement, is not a recorded studio name, although it appears on a number of bottles of different colours but of similar shape where the mark is sometimes placed in this unusual position on one narrow side.
This mark could either be the studio name of the bottle owner who favoured this shape and the different colours of glass, or it could be the identifying device of a particular workshop.
The present bottle is probably the most elegant of the group, because it is rather thinner and longer than the standard shape. The high degree of translucency also increases the sense of elegant thinness of this example.
