Thank you Jason, yes, there are only a few chips, but, in my experience (with 18th c European glass, not snuff bottles) chips on glass tend to remain crisp, as it is a fairly hard material. So I am not sure if that is a criterion for judging the age of this bottle. However I am not an expert either...
Regards,
Matthias
