Snuff Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Snuff Bottle by Unknown Artist shows a black snuff bottle with a rounded body and long neck. The bottle is viewed from the front and rests on a flat surface against a light-colored background. The base of the bottle is small and circular. The body of the bottle is bulbous and rounded. The neck of the bottle is long and cylindrical, with a small opening at the top. The entire bottle appears to be a solid dark color with some lighter areas suggesting a sheen or reflection.
