I discovered... that the red seal is the maker's mark, which is also in script above it, I assumed it was the date.
Andacht has a page with Chinese characters for various years for snuff bottles. This was really helpful in recognizing some dates on some bottles but not all, as the way the date is explained in the Chinese script is not always the same.
I also wanted to point out that none of these bottles are marked in any way, except the small painted ones. Regards, lisa
