Cloisonne art work in Japan dates this far back.

One recorded reference to first possible anuff and snuff bottles was by a CP Thunberg. Saying the while visiting Japan in 1776 that snuff in flattened glass bottles was brought there by the Chinese.

Although apparently not popular in Japan, and Japanese records of its use are almost nonexistent.

I have no idea what the oldest or first Cloisonne type snuff bottle would have been created.

Not to forget that it may have been the Portuguese who introduced tobacco to Japan in the year 1543.

I am reading through some more from Bob Steven Book right now.

Lots to learn  Smiley
