Description

An antique Chinese red overlay Peking glass snuff bottle with a continuous scene of a lotus pond with a crane, turtle, and deer carved into the overlay. The bottle features a semi-transparent, bubble-suffused ground glass with a dark-red overlay. Snuff bottles were produced in China starting in the early 18th century for ground tobacco and were popular collectibles. This specific style, with a flat oval foot and a tall cylindrical neck, is estimated to date from 1750 to 1780. H: 2.5" Good condition.
