Compare the caramel-colored glass bottle with Guyuexuan (Ancient Moon Pavilion) mark enameled with a scene of a pair of cranes perched in a pine tree, illustrated by R. Kleiner in Precious Playthings: Important Chinese Snuff Bottles from the Mack Collection, Hong Kong, 2000, pp. 6-7, where it is attributed to the Beijing Palace workshops and dated 1760-1795. See, also, the caramel-colored glass bottle enameled with a continuous lotus pond scene with a pair of egrets and a pair of mandarin ducks, also with a red-enamel Qianlong mark, illustrated by M. C. Hughes, The Chester Beatty Library, Dublin, Chinese Snuff Bottles, Hong Kong, 2009, p. 251, no. 195, where it is attributed to Yangzhou and dated 1770-1799.
