C15 A “Fisherman’s landscape” double bottle

Description

Description:  Chinese double snuff bottle decorated in underglaze cobalt blue with the same scene on both bottles.

The scene is in Kangxi style as typical Kangxi are the frits at the edges of the glaze and the very smooth white paste; nonetheless the bottle should be prudently dated to the 19^th century.
