Translucent emerald-green on a brownish-beige ground appears to have been one of the more popular of the unusual combinations of glass overlay. This combination seems to have been favored in the mid-to later Qing period. See Moss, Graham and Tsang, The Art of the Chinese Snuff Bottle. The J & J Collection, no. 390 for a green glass on brown overlay bottle of globular shape, carved with a continuous design of the "Three Friends of Winter."
For an explanation about the 'Three Friends of Winter' see the footnote of lot 160.
