Lot Essay

In shape, though not in degree of hollowing, this bottle can be compared to the so-called 'Pine Needles in Snow' jadeite bottle illustrated by Hugh Moss, Victor Graham and Ka Bo Tsang, A Treasury of Chinese Snuff Bottles, The Mary and George Bloch Collection, Hong Kong, 1995, vol. I, Jade, pp. 440-441, no. 172
