All auctions / Asian Art / Snuff bottle - Agate shadow silhouette Qing dynasty - Agate - Snuff Bottle


Stunning Agate Snuff Bottle "Shadow" from the Qing Era. Fine Chinese snuff bottle in natural agate from the Qing dynasty, crafted with the refined "shadow agate" technique. The cut was done with great mastery to follow the stone's natural veining, revealing two different images on the two sides: on one side a dark silhouette stands out clearly against the light background, on the other the veining opens into warmer amber and golden hues, with different transparency effects. Body with a rounded, elegant shape, featuring excellent hollowing: thin, regular walls that enhance the stone's translucency. Dimensions: height 6.3 cm Weight: 37 grams Material: chalcedony agate Era: Qing Dynasty Lid green with a bone spoon.
