Snuff Bottle (stopper)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The stopper for a Snuff Bottle, titled and by an unknown artist, is a small, dark green object. The object has a flared base that tapers upward into a stem. A rounded element protrudes from the stem; the element features a head at its top and a curved element on one side. The entire object exhibits a mottled appearance, with variations in green hue and light reflection. It stands alone on a grey surface, with a shadow cast to one side. The background fades from black at the top to grey at the bottom.
