Found last weekend, this is what I like to call a “original” snuff bottle. Usually us collectors find the more modern snuff bottles from the 20th century, but this is a genuine 1800s snuff bottle. Correct me if I am wrong, but aren’t these crude 1800s snuff bottles somewhat uncommon? I can’t seem to find many original ones on the internet. I’d say this one dates from circa 1880-1890. Some of these pictures try to display the crudity of the bottle. NOTE: this is not machine made, the first picture is
deceiving as it looks like a horizontal seam on the neck. Obviously not machine made with that base.
