This striking vintage snuff bottle stands approximately 3 inches tall and brims with folkloric symbolism and charm. Molded in deep jade green resin, the bottle features two captivating high-relief scenes: one side showcases the jubilant Laughing Buddha (Budai) surrounded by playful children, a beloved symbol of abundance and joy in Chinese tradition. The reverse side depicts a serene immortal figure interacting with a monkey amidst swirling clouds, evoking the mysticism of classic Chinese lore.

The finely detailed carvings give the appearance of hand-carved stone, and the bottle is topped with a floral-motif stopper that fits snugly in place. While originally inspired by Qing dynasty snuff bottles, this mid-century piece was likely made for decorative use or as a collectible souvenir.

A wonderful addition to any collection of Asian antiques, spiritual curios, or vintage decor that honors craftsmanship and cultural storytelling.

Condition: Gently aged with a few spots of natural wear to the surface, consistent with age. Lid removes cleanly; bottle is hollow and unlined.

Dimensions: Approx. 3 inches tall

✨ A perfect piece to display on a shelf, altar, or curio cabinet. 🪷
