A SUPERB SLIP-DECORATED STONEWARE SNUFF BOTTLE

YIXING, 1750-1830

The bottle is finely decorated in brown slip with a continuous, lyrical, mountainous river scene. One side depicts a farmer carrying his hoe across a bridge with moutains rising out of mist in the background and the moon high in the sky. The reverse depicts a continuation of the landscape, with a small pavilion surrounded by rocks and trees and overhanging cliffs above.

2 1⁄2 in. (6.3 cm.) high, jadeite stopper
