Honey-hued agate forms the translucent body of this snuff bottle, with low-relief handles to the sides. The front is decorated in “hundred-treasure” inlay—a figural scene with lotus and auspicious clouds—using materials such as agate, turquoise, lapis and coral for vivid color contrasts. Topped with a red agate stopper with attached spoon. Balanced in form and finely worked in both carving and inlay, it is an elegant object for connoisseurship and display.
