China, Mid-20th Century, Glass Snuff Bottle Painted With A Dragon Inside.

China, mid-20th century, rare glass snuff bottle finely painted inside a dragon in the clouds. On this tiny surface, the artist has deployed a dreamlike landscape with the symbolic motif of the dragon. He knew how to exploit the transparency or opacity of the glass to play with light and depth. This Chinese snuff bottle favors a delicate palette, evanescent hues, where milky white and shades of red, orange and green dominate. The attention to detail and the rigor of the line are part of a tradition where the object becomes both utilitarian and spiritual, serving to protect the tobacco while embodying a dreamlike scene. Dimensions: Height 8.5 x Width 4 (cm). The scale indicator on the last photograph is a small model of lighter from a well-known brand.
