Collection of Six Chinese Snuff Bottles Including One Very Unsusual Fruit Form in Brown Hardstone and one in Jadeite. Fine collection of six Chinese Snuff Bottles. The standout is originally from the Georgia Roode Collection, a brown hardstone fruit form snuff bottle 3¾" tall with carved wood top to evoke the stem complete with scoop. Very unusual and striking, boasting a remarkable organic feel. Another is a lovely small jadeite bottle only 2¼" tall with hints of spinach green throughout, traditional Chinese etched symbol on both sides; jadeite top without scoop. A third significant piece is an antique glass snuff bottle with bamboo and floral design and traditional mask designs on sides complimented by a metal top with blue enamel band and light red glass with scoop on nicely carved wood stand. The other bottles a black glass overlay on milk colored glass, black glass top and scoop, a fiery red and yellow glass mottled bottle with green mottled glass top and scoop. Finally a swirling brown glass bottle with agate top and scoop. All are in excellent condition. Estimate Value $500 - UP
