Adrian, thank you for showing us yet more interesting bottles unfortunately I have never seen one in the flesh only in books and sale catalogues.  You must have an awfully big library on snuff bottles or some real enthusiasm and dedication to dig all this information out. However it does show one thing very clearly, even with this type of applied glass it is nowhere near as thick as the black glass on Rube bottle.

I also like your cane bottle at the end of your piece. I saw a similar one a few months ago which I also liked very much on eBay, but I couldn't bring my self to buy it as  they don't look very Chinese to me. Wink
