This is one of the most understated snuff bottle in my collection. Its appearance is dark, but when seen in bright lights, the different colorations just pop, and its dark background turns into a lovely shade of olive green, showing off all the color hues inbedded in the stone. The rock identifier calls it brecciated jasper, but the seller has another name - moss agate. The bottle has a flatted oblong shape tapering down to a well carved raised oval foot. The shoulders end in a well proportioned neck with a flat top. It is matched with an agate stopper on a black collar. The core is wood. It is a custom made stopper, and it fits into the bottle with a snap!!!
It came from the English Collector who bought this in the Far East in the late 1970's.
