    Mostly likely medicine. That grooved corner was for an eye-dropper thing to be held there by a rubber band (I'm told) I have a brown one with Japanese words on it. Unless you know for sure yours is Chinese, it might also be Japanese characters.

    Thanks for sharing your find.
    Oriental medicine bottles are what I collect. Your find looks very nice.

    Here's a small sample of some of mine.
