A CARVED WHITE JADE SNUFF BOTTLE
1750-1800
Of rounded rectangular form, the bottle is carved on one side with a boy
swimming upward and clutching a carp, with a lotus bloom emanating
from the fish's mouth, all amidst sea plants and lotus leaves and pods.
The reverse is carved with a deer kneeling beneath the sun above a large
curled leaf. There are very faint hints of russet in the stone.
