Description

This vintage Jingdezhen porcelain snuff bottle features a beautifully hand-painted five-clawed imperial dragon rendered in green, black, and iron-red, chasing a flaming pearl among stylized clouds and flames — a classic symbol of power and good fortune. The shoulder is adorned with a decorative Ruyi-head border and scrollwork designs, while the base features simple red and green accents. The underside bears a red “Made in China / Jingdezhen / 08” mark, indicating its place of origin. The bottle includes a matching fitted lid with coordinating motifs. Dimensions: H: 4.5" × W: 2.5" × L: 2.5". Condition: Good, with minor wear consistent with age.
