Featured Silver and Bone Snufff Bottles - Not What they seem?

lol, AJ stealing the poor peoples snuff bottles!

 

Greed makes us do nasty things.

 

I see that! cool little bottles though.

 

Okay. So I won the bid at $125 and I got the three others at $90. Does this count as a collection?

 

Does it count as a collection? I'd say that yes, indeed, it does!

When you have 2 of something, it's just a couple... Once you get to 3, you have a collection!

 

That's what I've always heard, too.

 

And I am living proof...

 

Congratulations, Kiko! The others are beauties as well.
And congratulations on being an official Mongolian snuff bottle collector.

 

Whooo! Finally you got 6!!!
Kudos!
Welcome in a new area of collecting

 

AJ Do you have any guesses of the material in the small brown one in the second set? The others all seem to be the same material - bone. Also The third one in the second set - does the paint say anything about age? I can do more research on my own, I just thought I might ask if you had this information in your amazing repertoire of knowledge. Kiko

 

It was just my impatience waiting for my bid to come up and scrolling down to see where they were on the list and I ran across the other three and thought why not if the price was right. Six will look better than three all lined up. I hope they can find the missing top. I think someone tried to clean that one.

 

Hi,
If they can not find the top, you can always make a fake top out of ceramic molding clay and a few "gems". I think it is a beautiful collection.

Greg Thanks for the idea. We'll have to discuss how to do that, if it doesn't some with the stopper. Kiko

 

Wow. Great find. I'll contact them.

 

You are astonishing. He has two more which he will sell me. Better more than less, I say. Thanks so much.

 

No $10.
