Bakelite Chinese Carved Snuff Bottle

Description

A bakelite snuff bottle. Hand carved with very intricate detail. I assume from the beginning of bakelite (from my prior knowledge and experience with bakelite), so no later than 1915. Definitely an antique with a bone pick. Chinese hand carved with an orange amber color to it. Snuff bottle is nearly 3 inches tall with a screw on lid. Has minor scratches to the face of it but nothing that takes away from the detail of the cravings. This is a wonderful piece. Message me with any questions about it. Perfect for someone who collects snuff bottles or tobacco items.
