Hello all,

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I need to ask a question.

I do not have the luxury of owning a jade snuff, whether new or old. Now I know jade is very hard, but surely even jade should have some wear marks on it if it is 18th or 19th century.

I understand this particular snuff was not purchased by a member, so any lack of wear on it cannot be seen. However, can any member please post some really good photos of an 18th or 19th jade snuff that they own, so we can see the wear that one should expect from a piece of jade that old.

Thank you in anticipation of your kind assistance.

Paul
