Madison Bouckville Haul - Small Chinese Medicine Bottle

[springhead]

Just got back from four days of buying and selling and beer drinking fun... Bought this from the lady set up next to us for a dollar. A small 2 1/4" inch Chinese medicine of some sort. I might have to go to the Chinese Porcelain Board for a translation. Any comments would be appreciated.

It has an indentation on one side...

The bottom... picture is not too good...

Ok. It's a little out of my local collecting area, but I'd double your investment for it!

Neat bottle.

I LUV it, it fits my collection perameters. I am interested if it's available.

Hoping for a translation. Don't want to bother the porcelain people and Zhongwen is driving me nuts... heh...

I am learning chinese at the moment and I can translate two of the words. They are both on the second picture. The first is "Tian", Which means "Day". The one under that is "Xi", which means "Heart". It could have been some sort of heart medication.

Well I know the first character is Dai (Great) so I guess we have Great Day Heart...

Put the pictures on this site, I've had some good luck there with translations.

I also attended and sold. The place is massive. Lots of deals to be found but take your time.
