Up for sale is a rare antique hand carved Chinese tigers eye stone snuff bottle.
The bottle is carved out of a dense piece of natural tigers eye that shines several tones that aren't typical of basic tigers eye.
It has lovely figural detailing done in high relief along with stylized foo lion handles on the shoulders that have rings in their mouthes.
It is fastened with a matching carved stopper which has a cork attached.
It's in nice condition and measures 2 5/8 inches tall by 1 7/8 inches wide.
There are a couple very small edge flakes on the bottom of the foot as shown in last photo.
