A white nephrite jade snuff bottle
18th/19th Century
Of unusual form, the bottle carved to take the appearance of an S-shaped scroll, one side carved as a landscape, the other to imitate a geometric silk brocade pattern, with two distinct chambers, each with its own green hardstone stopper, with a fitted wood stand.
