    Here is a beautiful snuff bottle I picked up in China. The person who sold it to me said it belonged in the early Qing Dynasty period, possibly late 1600s to early 1700s. It does not have any markings or stamps which makes me wonder if it is really that old??? It does look and feel very old and has significant oxidation throughout. I love the mint glaze and the unmistakeable Chinoiserie motif is really beautiful so I got it anyway. I am grateful for any insight or info on this piece. Ms. Daysi
