Chinese Agate Cameo‑Carved Snuff Bottle

拍品描述

Chinese Agate Cameo‑Carved Snuff Bottle H. 7.4 cm. W. 4.9 cm. A well‑hollowed agate snuff bottle with translucent milky‑white ground, masterfully utilising warm russet‑brown skin in relief to depict a classical scene of a lady, goose and gnarled pine tree. The smoothly rounded body rises to a short cylindrical neck, fitted with a polished orange‑red hardstone stopper secured by a black gasket. Executed in refined qiaodiao technique, the carving harmoniously integrates natural stone colouration with narrative imagery, an elegant representative for snuff‑bottle connoisseur collections. Dimensions: Height 7.4 cm, Width 4.9 cm. An agate snuff bottle with cameo‑relief figural‑landscape carving and hardstone stopper.
