A RARE RED AND BLACK-OVERLAY OPAQUE WHITE GLASS SNUFF BOTTLE

YANGZHOU, 1840-1880

Of flattened rounded shape, the bottle is carved on one side with boys on buffalos wading through finely carved waves with three bats flying above. The reverse is decorated with two fishermen hauling their nets in a boat below a crane in flight. There is a carved seal reading bing wu, possibly corresponding to 1846, between the two scenes toward the base, and Qianlong three-character seal mark opposite.

2 1⁄4 in. (5.2 cm.) high, coral stopper
