Small late Qing carved turquoise snuff bottle with bok choy and radish along with an ant, cicada, grasshopper and cricket. The workmanship and details is superbly done including the insects, having very fine details to the legs, antennae and bodies. Presented on a rosewood stand, this snuff bottle has a wonderful color and patina and is one of the coolest bug type carved snuff bottles that we have encountered in some time. In excellent condition, a later spoon and cork was applied. Measures: Height 2-1/4" x Width 1-7/8" x Depth 1-3/8". Height on stand is 3 inches.
Note: These photos are greatly enlarged to show details and evidence of hand carving.
