Featuring traditional Chinese symbols of cranes, a very auspicious bird in both Japanese and Chinese culture, and bonsai trees rendered … more Featuring traditional Chinese symbols of cranes, a very auspicious bird in both Japanese and Chinese culture, and bonsai trees rendered in a dark, reddish-brown intricately carved glass overlay, this antique snuff bottle would make a nice addition to any collection. Made of Peking glass which originated in 18th century China during the rule of the Qing Dynasty. The introduction of European technologies by Jesuit missionaries to Asia in the 17th century caused a shift in the styles of Chinese glass makers and eventually led the Kangxi Emperor to establish an Imperial glass-works in 1696 to better produce the new material. The glass was commonly used in snuff bottles and vases. The golden age of Peking glass in China is widely cited as being the reign of the Qianlong Emperor in the mid-18th century. Though the art-form declined after the 19th century, the production of *Peking glass continued in China through the Republican period and into the present day.

*Peking glass is an overlay carved glass created by layering material around a core. To create the overlay, a glass blower makes the shape, then dips the shape into a basin of liquid glass, often of a contrasting color, several times. This process creates multiple layers of glass that are then carved away to produce a textured image. less
