Dimensions: Height including stopper 74 mm. Diameter neck 22 mm and mouth 6 mm
As with 'dream stones'
, the jade selected for the present bottle invites the viewer to contemplate upon the abstract patterns natural to the stone. One can imagine a mountainous landscape, just moments after the rain has passed and everything in the landscape is imbued with a soft, dreamlike mist. The beauty of this type of jade lies in the infinite interpretations one can make of the patterns.
