Ravenel Autumn Auction 2014 Hong Kong

A FINE AND RARE MOTTLED EMERALD-GREEN JADEITE SNUFF BOTTLE <br/>1770-1850 QING DYNASTY

Carved from a single block of Myanmar jade, the snuff bottle features “old pit glass”, a rich emerald green color, a clear texture, and a superb opening. Straight mouth, short neck, abundant shoulders, and a circular body that closes downwards. The entire body is luminescent and brightly polished, fully demonstrating the moist lushness of jade. The plump shape and curved lines are signs of a high quality artifact.
