<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 9766151, member: 7360"]This little snuff bottle was in a small lot of Oriental vintage, mostly touristy items, along with a couple of other snuff bottles which were inside painted glass and very nice. I thought it must be an inexpensive modern item but after looking for something similar on the internet I could only find some antique and very expensive ones. Mine doesn't seem to have any signs of age, particularly on the base, but I like the dragons. Do you think it is a mass-produced modern one, decorative value only, or does it have a bit of value? I have learnt not to trust my own, inexperienced assumptions, but to ask the experts first! It is about 6cms high. The colour is a bit greener than the photos.[ATTACH=full]480742[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]480743[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]480744[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]480745[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]480746[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]480741[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
