Thanks

oh boy. this is a recent snuff bottle that is claiming to be painted on the interior by Qing artist Ding Erzhong (false inscription across the bottom of the bottle in your third picture above). the other things are images of various ancient collectibles, including old Chinese coins/currency, a Han dynasty roof tile with a molded design/inscription, a fan painting, two seals belonging to the Qianlong emperor, and a section of a rubbing made from a stele into which calligraphy has been carved.
