Clear Crystal Snuff Bottle with Cash Pattern
A flattened, rounded crystal snuff bottle with an overall carved pattern of interlocking circles forming a lattice across its body. A red coral-toned stopper sits atop a white collar at the narrow neck, and a thin cord hangs inside the transparent glass. The carving catches light, creating soft lines against the neutral gray background.
