Scottish Ebony (and Rosewood) & Ivory Snuff Jar

Circa: 1700-1720
Size: 5 1/4" x 5 3/4"
This exceptional covered jar (relating in style and form to snuff mulls of the period) is the largest example of the early Scottish staved balaster (mull) shape that I have encountered. The treen cover is mounted with an ivory finial in the form of a crown. Remarkably the piece is in near perfect condition maintaining all of its' original staves, original lead lining, and base-tray.

Condition: Excellent. Small edge chips to base-tray. Two staves of the ivory crown have splits.

Price: SOLD
