Great quality and fine carving. You see a fire Dragon with pearl snuff bottle. It is hand carved bone, quality of bone gives it an ivory look, but it is much less expensive. This piece is about 2 1/8" tall. The quality is that of fine ivory, which puts it far above most bone carvings. It is a great piece at a really great price.

It is Chinese and from the "Hong Kong" mark on the bottom of the wood base [inlayed with silver metal], it would be made during the embargo period for Chinese goods, over 40 years ago. It is just under 4" tall with custom made hardwood stand. Perfect conditio ...click for details

Vintage Snowflake glass lucky symbols snuff bottle Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Regional Art: Asian: Chinese: Snuff Bottles: Pre 1970 item# 1142030 (stock# losn)
click for details		Terrill C. Smith 510-531-6812 $410.00
A beautiful vintage snuff bottle. Yellow snowflake Peking glass. 5 color overlay. Lucky symbols abound on this very good bottle. Beautiful carved blue glass top with moth pattern. These good bottles continue to go up in price. They have not been carved this well in decades, they never will be again. I find rapid increases in snuff bottle prices, and rapid decline in the quality of newer work. This bottle in an investment, better than anything on the market today. It is about 3 1/4" tall.

A rare and beautiful liquor decanter "Made in Italy for Luxardo 1969" on bottom. Fine detailed porcelain with elegant glazing. Great sculpting and details. This piece is in excellent condition and is 11" tall. Could hold flowers or serve as decoration because it does not really look like a decanter of spirits.
