Chinese Verre Églomisé Snuff Bottle with landscape scenes, fitted box, C20th

A Chinese glass snuff bottle of typical flattened oval rounded form with a replacement domed stopper, the interior decorated with intricate landscape scenes depicting a riverbank and a lakeside market and employing the ‘reverse glass’ or ‘verre églomisé’ technique. Dating of these pieces seems to be in the second half of the twentieth century but the skill of the maker is self evident and has produced a true landscape in miniature.
