Dear Giovanni,

     No, I've not seen anything similar, but have not looked, since they don't appeal to me.
Best,
Joey


Dear Charll and George,
I must say that I don’t like these two bottles. I may be totally wrong, since Charll has much more knowledge than me on snuff bottles, but I will not be surprised if these two bottles are very recent. My perplexities belong from the style of drawing, never seen before, not related to any style/period. Everything is strange to me, the horses, the hats, the faces, the dresses, legs, shoes. And the blue too is strange, it is similar to the Japanese blue, almost no shades.
Dear Joey, have you ever seen something similar?
Kind regards
Giovanni
