A PARCEL GILT BRASS SNUFF BOTTLE, 1860-1940
1860-1940年鎏金銅鼻烟壺
Sold for €390
including Buyer's Premium
Japan. Of flattened shield form, with a pendent ruyi-head at the base, short waisted neck, and tall cylindrical mouth, the body patinated to a warm copper tone and parcel-gilt, the front and back bearing the same design of a central recessed panel with an array of chrysanthemum and other blossoms, encircled by eleven butterflies, flanked by two handles in the form of sinuous serpents with furcated tails as handles, with a chain strap.
Provenance: From an English private collection.
Condition: Excellent condition with minor old wear, microscopic nicks, shallow surface scratches.
Stopper: Green jadeite
Weight: 16.7 g
Dimensions: Height including stopper 63 mm. Diameter neck 6 mm and mouth 4 mm
This bottle belongs to a limited number of high-quality objects made during or shortly after the Meiji period (1868-1912) in Japan and more than likely created for export to China. The Japanese excelled with their highly creative and intricate works of art especially involving ivory, bronze, and lacquer.
Literature comparison:
Compare two closely related brass snuff bottles, one illustrated by Robert Hall, Chinese Snuff Bottle IV, London, 1991, page 6, no. 6, and the other illustrated by Bob Stevens, Snuff Bottles, New York, 1976, page 218, no. 812.
