Lot 348:
Expertly drilled cylindrically into each bottle, this paired floating agate Chinese snuff bottle is a rare example. Each have coral glass-like stoppers with pinks and cream coloring throughout – spoons still attached to each. Though slightly contrary to the purpose of a snuff bottle, agate is known in Chinese culture for longevity. Size 2 1/2" H
Condition: Overall fine condition throughout with some minor soiling, small old chip to one rim.
