This is a rare and rather unique Snuff Bottle made from Bamboo, and shaped in the form of a double Gourd. It has a flat footing. It is carved in high relief all around, and it depicts monks within a temple, surrounded by trees. A crane making a landing can also be seen. Well established cavity. Excellent rich patina. It comes with an aquamarine hardstone stopper. This excellently carved bottle is in excellent preserved condition. Bottle Measurements Height: 2.0 inches (5.0cm) - not including stopper Diameter (larger gourd): 1.40 inches (3.6cm) Weight: 0.8 ounces
