There is a series of miniature aubergine shaped bottles in the Blair Collection (see Hughes, Michael C. 'The Blair Bequest: Chinese Snuff Bottles from the Princeton University Art Museum.' International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society. Baltimore, 2002).

They date to the 1800s, and are a bit slimmer than yours, but of similar height.
