Description from the seller

An exclusive snuff bottle from a private collection is offered. The photos provide a good and realistic depiction of the object's condition and color. The very last added photo with the white background was taken under daylight conditions. The snuff bottle has a few chips around the mouth, which are well captured by clear photos.

The snuff bottle has a globular, oval shape and is made of yellowish translucent agate, finished with a green stopper and a refined spoon.
