Depending if it is genuine or not, will determine value...You can see examples on Ebay...I learned some are carved from rock crystal...and alot will depend on the artist...

You become and expert and buy a bunch of books on snuff bottles, and then learn Chinese to read to signature, which you probably will never locate another by the same person.
