Session 3: Chinese Snuff Bottles
On the final day of Oakridge Auction Gallery's January Chinese Art and Antiques sale, an exquisite collection of 217 snuff bottle lots take center stage. These handheld treasures embody a refined fusion of craftsmanship and cultural significance, making them an ideal fit for collectors invested in sophisticated beauty or objects of historical interest. The miniatures offered here showcase a diverse array of materials from finely carved jades to warm-toned ambers, all seamlessly integrated with more traditional porcelain bottles decorated with famille rose and copper-red-underglaze. Also included within this sale are a carefully curated collection of inside-painted bottles, presenting signed works by luminaries of the medium such as Zhou Leyuan, Chen Zhongsan, and Liu Shouben. The gallery's snuff bottle assemblage is complemented by a number of elegantly-made glass specimens, among which is an exceptional 18th century light blue Peking glass bottle with delicately carved petal fluting. Many of these charming and utilitarian art pieces mentioned here come to Oakridge through the distinguished Joan and Ted Dorf Collection, which were meticulously accumulated over a span fifty years in Maryland. The diversity and rarity of the snuff bottles presented in this sale are sure to bolster the collections of any discerning connoisseur.
