This assorted group includes two carved snuff bottles, one decorated with animal motifs in relief and the other featuring a fish-themed design. The animal-decorated bottle displays lively carved detailing suggestive of traditional naturalistic symbolism, while the fish-form snuff bottle presents a more sculptural, stylized appearance. The group also includes a carved figural sculpture in a seated or kneeling pose along with two small associated implements likely intended for snuff use or display. Executed in a combination of light and dark toned materials that may include stone, resin, or composite, the pieces exhibit varied carving styles and decorative interest. An appealing lot for collectors of snuff bottles, Asian-inspired decorative objects, or miniature carved curios.
