A superb Collector's MING DYNASTY, CHUNG-CHENG (1628-1643), BLUE AND WHITE SNUFF BOTTLE depicting several figures in action as well as seldom encountered relief/carved/raised masks on each side. The base is marked with a double circle and 4 Chinese Characters of the Period. The neck of the snuff bottle has special pattern décor markings. The stopper is genuine Jade-Jadeite and comes with a spoon.
Size: 8.5 cm.
Condition is very good overall considering the age of this bottle. Some inconsequential scratches on the base from prior removal of cover hiding the markings. VERY RARE!
