Snuff Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Snuff Bottle by an unknown artist shows a dark-colored snuff bottle with a rounded body and a narrow neck. The bottle is made of a smooth material, likely glass or stone, and features a carved design. The design depicts two figures, one on the left and one on the right. The figure on the left appears to be a child, while the figure on the right appears to be an adult. The adult figure is wearing a robe and has their arms crossed. A rounded, possibly fruit-like object is carved above and between the figures. The stopper is rounded and smooth with a dimpled surface. The background of the image is white.
