Chris The Dealer's blog: "MY CRAZY LIFE"

This is a snuff bottle, about three inches tall, obviously Asian. I'm not sure about the date on this, but I doubt that there has been a high demand for these things over the past 100 years. The photograph doesn't do justice to the detail. The writing and painting of the bottle are on the inside, painted through the quarter inch hole in the top of the bottle. I see this, and I think to myself, "That's impossible!" This is a little piece of history, a treasure in my collection of art. I am honored that I have been given guardianship of it.
