Snuff Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Snuff Bottle by Izumi Kōhamon. The image shows a white, ceramic snuff bottle with a crackle glaze and dark-colored designs on its surface. The bottle's body is elongated with a narrow neck and mouth. There are two horse-like figures depicted in a darker color on the upper part of the bottle, while two figures are shown on the lower part. The background of the image is light gray. The bottle appears to have some chipped edges.
