Snuff Bottle with Bird on a Rock and a Deer under a Pine
This white nephrite jade snuff bottle is of flattened vase form. Its carvings subtly illustrate a bird on a rock, and on the opposite side, a deer under a pine branch. The piece is very well hollowed and has a green glass stopper with a black collar and a teakwood base.
