Snuff bottles were small, intricately designed containers used to store and carry snuff (powdered tobacco), which was introduced to China in the late 16th century. These bottles became highly prized during the Qing Dynasty (1644–1912), especially among the imperial court and elite, evolving into a unique form of miniature art.
