Detail: Auction No. 144
Thursday, Dec 11, 2014, 12 pm EST

This auction will exclusively present rare snuff bottles, which feature an impressive array of materials and artistic designs. The level of skill of the artistic craftsmen is demonstrated by the excellently hollowed out moss agate snuff bottle with grey-blue veining or the multicolor-overlay glass snuff bottle with insects and blossoms, which still features its original stopper in the shape of a frog. Be amazed by these small but fine artworks, such as the bright violet amethyst snuff bottle with dragon relief.
