Snuff Bottle

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Snuff Bottle by an unknown artist: The bottle is made of a translucent white material, possibly glass or crystal, with a subtle sparkle and small white specks throughout. The bottle's body features a rounded shape with a narrow neck and a small foot. A raised lip around the neck supports a stopper. The stopper is a deep pinkish-red color with a smooth surface and white specks. A gold-colored metal collar encircles the neck. The bottle features a carved red design depicting people and foliage. The background transitions from dark at the top to light gray at the bottom, with the bottle casting a shadow.
