Tobacco box - 3x Snuff Bottles Mod

A golden opportunity for the boldest and most refined collectors of Asian art! We present an exceptional and provocative trio of Chinese scent bottles (snuff bottles) in white and blue porcelain, entirely hand-painted. The absolute feature that makes this lot a ninety-point piece lies in its decorations: each bottle is finely painted with explicit erotic scenes, recalling the ancient tradition of shunga art and historical Chinese marriage manuals. Each piece is unique in shape, proportions, and cobalt blue painted details under glass, finished with its own original coordinating stopper. This type of craftsmanship, historically reserved for private, elite patrons, represents an extremely sought-after niche in the international collecting market. An incredibly magnetizing set, perfect to enrich a high-level collection or as an exceptional conversation piece in an exclusive residence. A piece of secret Asian history, now within reach of a click!
