Created between 1820 and 1880, this exquisite artifact exemplifies the mastery of Chinese craftsmanship during the 19th century. The snuff bottle, made of agate, is meticulously carved to depict an enchanting scene. A majestic hawk perches atop a tree branch while below it stands a powerful bear amidst lush foliage. The intricate details and skillful artistry bring these animals to life, showcasing the artist's talent. The brown hue of the agate adds warmth to this piece, complementing its natural surroundings. The white color used for carving creates contrast and enhances each delicate feature.
