Snuff Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Snuff Bottle by an unknown artist depicts a white and green snuff bottle with a landscape design. The bottle's body has a predominantly white base color, with intricate dark brown designs depicting a landscape scene with trees, buildings, and possibly a pagoda. The neck of the bottle features a decorative band around it, and the top is capped with a small, rounded green stopper. The bottle stands on a small, dark-colored wooden or metal stand with ornate carvings, which has three legs. The background of the image is a plain white surface that gradually darkens towards the top.
