Hey guys,

I bought this snuff bottle in Portobello Road, London. The seller couldn't tell me much apart from the fact it is bone. Wondering if you guys could tell me more or could date the item... Thanks!

The seller pretty much summed it up... Bone, and likely within past 40 years or so..

Please do edit/crop images down to a reasonable size next time.. These are pretty big !

Hi Pookies,

Can you please re-size your images. They are HUGE...............far too big to view them properly.

Guideline pixel size is 600 x 800 or under.

Thanks

Thanks for the info George.

Sorry about the images. I haven't been near a computer just my phone and having trouble resizing. Will resize the images over the weekend.
