Old Chinese Agata Snuff Bottle with Qin Player

Old Chinese Agata Snuff Bottle with Qin Player


Antique Chinese snuff bottle

Attractive vintage agate snuff bottle. White-brown stone, artful carving so that it depicts a scholar, sitting on a rock, playing the "Qin" (Chinese zither).

The color ranges from dark brown, light brown, yellow-beige to almost white at the right side. This makes the snuff bottle really stand out.

 Greenish Jadeite stopper. Well hollowed, 67 gram, good condition.
 48 x 23 x 62 mm.
