Antique Chinese Shadow Agate Cameo Relief Carved Snuff Bottle Scholar Qing 19c
About the Item
A Chinese late Qing dynasty shadow agate snuff bottle, exquisitely carved to depict a scene of contemplative serenity. It features a scholar, thoughtfully seated on a rock, positioned beneath the overhanging boughs of a pine tree. The natural variations in the agate's coloration are masterfully utilized to create this tranquil vignette, with the darker patches skillfully carved to form the figure of the scholar and the intricate details of the pine. This piece showcases natural beauty of the stone, harmoniously integrated with the carved design to evoke a sense of peaceful introspection.
