Description from the seller

A delightful fully intact large Chinese inside-painted glass snuff bottle featuring an intricate figurative battle scene on cobalt blue glass, attributed to the late Qing dynasty or early Republic era artist Yong Shoutian.

The piece, which reflects the artistic style associated with the Beijing school of snuff bottle painting, features the signature of the artist on the body of the bottle.

At 16cm with stopper and stem intact and no chipping or damage to the glass this is an excellent surviving example of Yong Shoutian's craft.
