The decoration of a tethered horse is a popular motif on Chinese snuff bottles. The image is representative of unrealized potential and expresses the wish for the deserving owner to have a quick promotion. For a discussion of this imagery see M. Hughes, The Chester Beatty Library, Dublin, Chinese Snuff Bottles, Hong Kong, 2009, p. 106.
