Fine Antique Chinese Carved Cinnabar Applied Gemstones Snuff Bottle R.O.C. 20c
About the Item
This cinnabar snuff bottle from the Republic of China period is a masterful blend of intricate craftsmanship and symbolic artistry. The bottle, in a flattened globular form, serves as a canvas for a meticulously carved persimmon on the vine with leaves on one side, and a pair of peaches on the verso. Adding to the artistry, the persimmon and peaches are not merely carved but are also embellished with applied gemstones, lending a layer of opulence and visual depth. The symbolism is rich—the persimmon representing good luck and prosperity, and the peaches symbolizing longevity. The deep, luscious red hue of the cinnabar base beautifully complements the gemstones, making this snuff bottle a work of art that epitomizes the zenith of traditional Chinese snuff bottle craftsmanship.
