La description
 Bottles with interior painting were first made in the
latter part of the nineteenth century.
Snuff bottles are made of a wide variety of materials, coral,
ivory, jade, jadeite, mother of pearl, lapis lazuli, quartz,
malachite, agate, and turquoise as well as gold, silver and other
exotic materials. Despite the number of exotic materials to
choose from, glass is the most popular and most surviving models
are made from this material. The Chinese cut and polished the
glass like a precious stone. When metal oxides were added, the
subsequent glass became an exquisite glass sculpture. The glass
for these works generally originated in Shantung, although the
cutting itself was done in Beijing.
The most charming and truly fascinating Chinese snuff bottles are
those with paintings on the interior walls. These are painted
from the inside after the inside of the bottle is coated with
iron oxide mixed with water. This creates a milky white surface
suitable to take the subsequently applied paint. The scenes were
usually landscapes, flowers, people or animals. These are truly
works of art.
