Chinese Snuff bottles

Chinese snuff bottles were used to store snuff tobacco powder. Besides this purpose, they were also decorative objects which served as status symbols. Often they were small masterpieces, showing fine craftsmanship in various materials such as glass, porcelain, jade, quartz, ivory, coral, lacquer, amber and wood.

Tobacco was imported to China from Europe in the late 16th century and was initially smoked in pipes. The use as snuff began at the outset of the Qing dynasty in 1644, when smoking tobacco was prohibited, whereas snuff was seen as a remedy for common illness: colds, headaches or stomach aches. At first, snuff was only accessible to the elites of the dynastic households, but towards the end of the 17th century it became popular at the Beijing court and developed into a social ritual among the upper classes. By the end of the late 18th century, this trend had spread to the rest of the country and permeated all social strata. It was considered polite to offer a pinch of snuff to friends on the street or to house guests. As a result, elaborate Snuff bottles were constantly being held and passed around, slowly rounding the edges from wear. The popularity of snuff reached its apex in the Qing dynasty, ebbing with the revolution and the founding of the Chinese republic in 1912.
