[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 3674890, member: 2844"]Thanks inh, that is how I usually find my kohl bottles.:) When they are listed as kohl bottles, the price suddenly triples.:eek: But now I am looking for the inlay technique rather than kohl bottles. I suspect they also used that inlay on boxes etc, but I haven't been able to find anything. The two bottles in the link look painted rather than inlaid to me, just like the ones ritzy posted. And they look Indian. Due to the Mughal period there can be a slight overlap in styles, but not in this case, imo. The inlay on mine looks a bit gritty, as if it is made of dyed bone grit. I love nice chess pieces.:)[/QUOTE]
