About the Item
A Cinnabar-red Overlay White Glass Snuff Bottle, 19th century. The flat oval white glass bottle has a thinn overlay of opaque dense red glass resembling cinnabar lacquer and deeply carved away in a cinnabar style to reveal a scholar’s studio with a footed vase with flower arrangement, teapot with a bird on top and a low table on one side, the other with a scene of a fish drum(token symbol of the immortal Zhang Guo Lao), Xiangqi game board with playing-piece containers, books and scrolls. The raised oval foot ring made of the same red glass. The stopper of a halved turquoise bead and two vinyl collars attached to a cork. Evidence that the ivory spoon has been removed.
