Antique Chinese Amber Glass Inside Painted Mounted Snuff Bottle Qing Late 19c
About the Item
An antique Chinese snuff bottle from the late Qing period, crafted from amber glass, showcases the mysterious and intricate art of inside painting. This bottle features a continuous, delicately rendered scene of playful boys and a contemplative scholar accompanied by a crane ibis, symbolizing longevity and wisdom.
Enhancing its allure, the bottle is adorned with copper mountings, including base, collar, and stopper, each embellished with inlays of turquois and paste gems (some chipped and with loss). The copper elements not only provide structural integrity but also contribute to the bottle's aesthetic appeal, creating a striking contrast with the warm tones of the amber glass.
This snuff bottle is a fascinating piece for collectors and enthusiasts of Chinese antiques. Its combination of glasswork, painting, and metalwork showcases the diverse craftsmanship of the late Qing period.
