The Right Snuff Decoding Chinese Snuff Bottles Vincent Fausone Jr discusses Chinese snuff bottles especially focusing on their history and production Based in San Francisco California he is a member of the Bay Area Snuff Bottle Collectors and the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society whose website is a member of our Hall of Fame In 1978 I found a snuff bottle and didnt know what it was It intrigued me so I bought it Then I found some books about snuff bottles and learned a bit about them and began looking for them Theyre all small almost none are taller than 3 inches And theyre made of all kinds of materials from glass to jade agate precious stones such as tourmaline even ruby matrix amethyst porcelain Theyre a microcosm of the craftsmanship of Chinese artisans Chinese snuff bottles were only made in the Qing Dynasty which started in 1644 and ended in 1911 and contrary to what some people think they were used only for holding powdered tobacco usually with some herbs and spices in it which was inhaled through the nose They were never used for opium thats a totally different thing They actually started in the imperial court For the first hundred years of their existence pretty much throughout the 18th century tobacco was exceedingly expensive in China so taking snuff was a habit It was definitely something for the upper crust of the imperial family and the influential minority of China It wasnt until the 19th century that you see a diffusion to the general population The other thing thats fascinating about them is that almost all Chinese art tells a story or has a meaning When we look at it we just see whatever is there You see a flower a figure a bat and it doesnt really mean anything to you but those things mean a great deal among the Chinese The Chinese have a tonal language so any particular sound may have three tones and mean three different things You can make a pun For instance bat you say that word in one intonation it means bat but in another one it means blessings So when you see a bat it means may you be blessed by and then whatever else is there may you be blessed by old age may you be blessed by wealth et cetera Five bats will represent the five virtues which are health wealth long life love of virtue and a natural death Glass bottles were made under the direction of a Jesuit Bavarian priest named Kilian Stumpf The snuff bottles were given back and forth presented like cigarette cases of the 1920s Many of them have wishes for passages of civil exams China had an extremely difficult system of examination The exams were open to everybody although only people who had enough money to be able to spend 12 years of their life studying could possibly afford to do this There were hundreds of thousands of young men who took the exams but only about a thousand of them ever reached the level of passage of the full examination It was a very competitive thing Many of these bottles have a theme which essentially says to the recipient we wish that you They were also used for bribes Because it was a small item you could give it to somebody and it wasnt traceable like money is or other things They were never considered high art On the other hand they were very much appreciated for their personal cachet To some extent its like a man wearing a Rolex watch He would bring out his bottle when he was with some other gentlemen this was mostly not completely something that men did and offer the others some snuff which was also a way of saying look at my wonderful bottle It was something he took pride in There are all these various elements that make snuff bottles fascinating plus you dont have to worry as much as you do with Chinese art which goes back 5000 years This is a very short period about 300 years when the snuff bottle was being used and most collectors want the bottles that were really meant to hold snuff not the later bottles created in the 19th century and into the 20th century just for collectors They stopped using snuff in China about the 1920s however there were still artisans who continued to make them primarily for the foreign collectors market You may notice that theres an enormous fake market going on now selling reproductions as if they were 18th or 19thcentury bottles Collectors Weekly Are there ways to tell the difference between the originals and fakes Fausone The obvious fakes are not difficult to discern but the really good ones can be difficult to identify Its one thing to make a reproduction and sell it as such and another thing to make a reproduction and sell it as a genuine article A contemporary bottle made as a reproduction which you can get sometimes at museum shops and so on is not going to cost more than 50 to a couple hundred dollars That same bottle if its an authentic 18thcentury glass bottle probably has a price tag of 5000 to 10000 The prices have escalated enormously because this period was a finite period so the number of authentic bottles that are still around dwindles as time goes on and as they store away into various collections Since I started collecting I would say the price of snuff bottles has risen between five and 10 times The most precious of these bottles are imperial bottles that were enameled on either metal or glass a technique that was imparted to the Chinese craftsmen by the Jesuits at court the court of Yongzheng and Qianlong especially Many of them have European themes and subjects on them because the designs were made by the Jesuits Just recently one of those bottles which has a totally European subject on it sold for 825000 The bottles that are enameled and of the Qianlong period or earlier always go for more than a hundred thousand dollars Back in the 1980s they were probably in the 50000 range Its the exquisite workmanship craftsmanship Enamel on glass especially was an extremely difficult technique to master because the bottle was often carved out of a block of glass not blown Then it had to be enameled and then you had to fire it and if the fire got too hot the thing would collapse So it was technically very difficult to accomplish especially because they had kilns that didnt have temperature gauges They had to eyeball whether it was too hot or hot enough or whatever All of the authentic Chinese snuff bottles are handmade Occasionally you find ones that are made of porcelain which were made in molds but almost all of those were finished in one way or another by hand handpainted if theres painting on them or handcarved The Chinese actually reinvented a technique thats known in the West as cameo glass This was invented in the late 1600s early 1700s in China where they took a glass bottle and then dipped it into another color or several colors sometimes and you cause the outside color to make an image on the bottle We call these overlay bottles This technique had been used by the Romans but it had been lost in Europe for over a thousand years and was not reintroduced into European glassmaking until it was reinvented in China by Chinese artisans Sometimes therell be two or three layers and they carve a piece onto the bottle using each layer as a separate color range like a cameo effect Insidepainted snuff bottles first came about in the late 1800s and were made up until around 1920 or 1930 The first bottles were actually made to be used for snuff but later they were made to be appreciated for what they were Theyre actually painted inside with a little brush that goes in and has a right angle so that the paint can go onto the surface Its watercolor paint not oil paint so you cant put water in these The first inside painted bottles were made by literati and scholar officials It was an amateur painters sort of thing Then there were actual craftsmen who became very good at this Its one of the legitimate contemporary snuff bottle forms thats still being carried on because they were made to be collected not really as containers There are a number of top artists today who continue to make insidepainted snuff bottles which because of the artistry garner a nice price tag I know some collectors who only collect contemporary insidepainted bottles I know one whos going to speak to us at our convention in Boston Hes got a website that you can take a look at SnuffBottleCollectorcom and he had a DVD showing how the bottles themselves are made Part of it shows a bottle being made over a period of something like a week From beginning to end you watch this artist work on this bottle Its an enormously laborious task Collectors Weekly Which snuff bottle materials are the most rare or valuable Fausone There are more porcelain bottles than any other type of bottle because when tobacco became affordable to the average person in China and this habit diffused to the general population porcelain was the cheapest material to make They could replicate a porcelain shape over and over again so there was a profusion of porcelain bottles Many of them toward the end were made to be thrown away They were just made as containers for snuff theres not much artistic value in them at all They were low end Thats not to say that there are not highend porcelain bottles porcelain bottles were made clear back in the 18th century right at the beginning of the snuff bottle craze among the elite and there are some very fine porcelain bottles from that period and into the 19th century Glass bottles were made specifically under the direction of a Jesuit Bavarian priest by the name of Kilian Stumpf who was made superintendent of the glass house that was established by the Emperor Kangxi in 1695 For that reason glass was considered a very very precious item There is a history beyond that of Chinese glassmaking but nothing like what happened in the 18th century when they really sat down to imitate and supersede the techniques of Western glassmakers Beijing gets very cold in the winter and they found that the glass bottles if used in the wintertime would often shatter from the cold so they began to make bottles out of stone They would use their glass bottles in the summertime and then use their stone bottles in the wintertime They developed the same kinds of techniques in jade agate pudding stones fossil limestone all the stones You name it its been made into a snuff bottle My favorite type of bottle is what I call an imitation bottle Starting very early in the evolution of snuff bottle making the emperors Yongzheng and Qianlong were very fond of imitation By this I mean a glass or porcelain bottle made to imitate precisely a natural material such as jade agate amethyst or coral Theyre made so incredibly well that you really have to examine them to be sure what the material is They were appreciated for the skill of the artisan in being able to essentially trompe loeil this material I have a porcelain bottle imitating turquoise and Collectors Weekly Where were these snuff bottles made Fausone For the most part snuff bottles were exclusively Chinese from the late 17th to the 19th centuries They were also made in Japan but never used in Japan The bottles that were made in Japan were meant to be sold either to users in China or to collectors Some very artistic bottles were made by the Japanese carved ivory bottles lacquer bottles and I have a few of those They also made snuff bottles in Thailand Almost all of those are made of metal There are metal bottles in China as well but it was not one of the top materials The Chinese snuff habit was a northern habit because the Qing Dynasty was made of Manchus from Manchuria They were not indigenous Chinese and they had already developed the habit of taking tobacco before they conquered China so there are still places where they took snuff Mongolia being one of them and Manchuria There are some bottles made in Nepal But again theyre usually made of metal often of coins which are fashioned in such a way to make a small snuff container There were some bottles made of glass in Bavaria In fact snuff bottles were made of glass in Bavaria before they were made in China but theyre totally different Theyre much larger five or six inches tall Theyre heavier and bigger and hold much more snuff They dont have spoons in them like the Chinese do The Chinese bottles all have a little spoon attached at the top so that you can take the snuff out and put it on your thumbnail and sniff it With the exception of insidepainted bottles collectors always like to see a spoon in the bottle Traditionally they were made out of ivory but now theyre making them out of bone and you cant really tell the difference They can be made of all kinds of things tortoise shell metal It was a utilitarian type of object actually the spoon One of the reasons that they chose a bottle was because China has a very humid climate and the snuff would cake in a box because you couldnt seal it tightly whereas in a bottle you can stopper it very tightly and keep moisture from getting in there The other reason for using a bottle is that theres a long history of bottles being used for medicine in China little bottles the same size as the snuff bottles Initially tobacco was felt to be a medicine that would alleviate pulmonary problems because when you sniff tobacco you sneeze and that allowed you to get rid of impurities The third reason may have to do with Kilian Stumpf because he was Bavarian and as I said theyd already been making snuff bottles in Bavaria prior to the time when he took over the glassworks in China Snuffboxes were made in Europe before that In the records we have the first tobacco sent to Kangxi who was the second emperor of the Qing Dynasty was in snuffboxes There are even a few Chinese snuffboxes but it was never a really big item The bottle above all was used for snuff Collectors Weekly Do the same people collect both snuff bottles and snuff boxes Fausone No I have a couple of snuffboxes but its a totally different field Totally European The materials used were much more sumptuous Snuffboxes are often made of gold or silver inlaid with jewels and gems diamonds precious stones and so forth and thats a totally different thing than the Chinese snuff bottles Rarely do you see any kind of precious stone inlay That just wasnt part of the Chinese taste Snuff boxes range from 2 to 3 inches and they used to have a lid Theyre maybe an inch deep They were also handmade They were made by the best craftsmen in Europe and also diffused to the general public so you get less expensive boxes as you go down the line Initially it started because all tobacco came from the New World and was very expensive when first introduced because it was imported There was no source of tobacco outside of the New World until tobacco began being grown in China the Philippines and various places in Europe It was an extremely expensive commodity so only the very wealthy that could afford it Collectors Weekly Would you say that antique snuff bottles are mostly about the art Fausone Yes thats why we collect them I dont think any of us have ever snuffed I tried it once just to see what it was like We dont smoke either The bottles were made to contain tobacco but essentially its the artistry the craftsmanship and the beauty which attracts us We have 500 members in our International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society from 45 nations That doesnt include all snuff bottle collectors because some people who just dont want to belong to an organization There are lots of collectors in England in France in Belgium Germany Switzerland some collectors in Italy collectors in Australia collectors in some South American countries Brazil Argentina Canada Spain essentially all over the world Were going to have 110 people at our convention in Boston this year Collectors Weekly What usually happens at the convention Fausone Its fun and enlightening For instance we have an exhibition of one of our top collectors Carl Barron whos got one of the largest collections in the world I think hes got 5000 to 6000 bottles and hes going to have an exhibition of 200 of his bottles were going to look at Were going to see the collection bottles at the Peabody Essex Museum which is the oldest collection in any museum and then were going to see the collection at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston which is the second oldest museum collection There are 11 bottles at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum that Mrs Gardner bought in 1883 on a trip to Beijing and we will see those We will have lectures by a number of authorities Professor Robert Mowry from Harvard is going to give us a lecture on enamelpainted porcelain bottles Our convention is a different place every year Last year it was in Toronto The year before that it was in San Francisco and the year before that it was in Hong Kong Next year it will be in Dublin Ireland and the year after that in Hawaii So we go all over Whenever were going to have a convention we think about what collections are there for us to see In both of these museums Peabody Essex and the Museum of Fine Arts their bottles are not on display all the time theyre just going to put them on Collectors Weekly Where do you find snuff bottles for your collection Fausone There are a number of dealers and you dont have to find them theyll find you For instance at this convention we have 16 dealers who will be selling bottles Secondly there are auctions Here in San Francisco Bonhams Butterfields almost always has snuff bottles in its Asian auction So thats pretty much where you get them auctions and dealers The problem with eBay is that you never know what youre getting You dont know the authenticity of things Unless I were dealing with a dealer whom I had great faith in and who would assess a bottle I need to see it and I need to hold it I need to look at it I need to examine it You cant tell whether its got a chip crack condition problems plus you dont know whether its genuine or whether it was made yesterday You can only do that by evaluating the bottle yourself Collectors Weekly If somebody wanted to start collecting Chinese snuff bottles what advice would you have for them Fausone Look at a lot of bottles before you start buying Theres a wonderful collection the Pritchard Collection at the Oakland Museum of California in Oakland Its well worth spending a lot of time in front of it Theres another collection in the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco A couple of my bottles are there that I donated to the museum The one book that any new collector should get a hold of is Bob Stevens snuff bottle book The Collectors Book of Snuff Bottles Its in the second printing now The other book is Lilla Perrys book which is called Chinese Snuff Bottles The Adventures and Studies of a Collector The other thing is to get in touch with collectors and ask them about dealers who are honest and who you can trust because you can get stung very easily especially now since bottles are more expensive than they used to be You cant really find a bottle anymore for a couple hundred dollars If youre spending that money unless you really know that youre getting a deal and you know more than the dealer does which is very rare youre being ripped off If youre going to be a serious collector youve got to shell out at least a And youve got to figure out what you personally value Im not attracted to these bottles that are going for 500000 to 800000 Theyre beautiful bottles but their subjects are almost all totally European There are some that arent but Im really not terribly interested in having an 18thcentury portrait of a Western lady or man on the face of my snuff bottles Im much more interested in those bottles that have authentic Chinese designs and symbolism All images in this article courtesy the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society z Roll the Dice If youre looking through a box and theres Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin for 50 cents each you cant say no

Vancouver man pleads guilty to fatally shooting friend TJ Patrick Ferres appears Wednesday in Clark County Superior Court to plead guilty to seconddegree murder in the fatal shooting of 37yearold Ian Patrick McKay Amanda CowanThe Columbian By Jerzy Shedlock Columbian Breaking News Reporter Published September 5 2018 855 PM A A A Vancouver man pleaded guilty Wednesday to seconddegree murder a charge stemming from an argument he had with a friend that ended in a fatal shooting at his home in the Hearthwood neighborhood TJ Patrick Ferres 57 opted to take a plea deal but appeared to have misunderstood what was being offered by the prosecution during his hearing in Clark County Superior Court Ferres faces a sentencing range of 123 to 220 months The plea agreement stipulates that the prosecution can argue for a sentence between 150 to 220 months Wow news to me Ferres said before stopping the hearing to spend about a halfhour in a conference room with his defense attorney Steve Thayer When Ferres returned to the courtroom he told Judge Daniel Stahnke that he had resolved the issues with his attorney Ferres took a long pause before entering his guilty plea Then Thayer read a statement outlining that his client shot 37yearold Ian P McKay with intent to kill In the statement Ferres argues he was acting in selfdefense but believes a jury could convict him if the case went to trial According to a probable cause affidavit Vancouver police responded shortly after 4 am Jan 22 2017 to a disturbance involving a weapon at Ferres residence When officers arrived they found McKay lying on the floor in the kitchen with a gunshot wound to the side of his body McKay was pronounced dead at the scene Detectives determined Ferres and McKay had been drinking and got into an argument that turned deadly according to the affidavit The prosecution previously argued there was evidence that Ferres retrieved a shotgun from another room before the shooting and stomped on the victims head after he shot him proof that he intended to kill McKay Ferres was initially accused of seconddegree murder but prosecutors later upgraded the charge to firstdegree murder In March 2017 Sharon McKay the victims mother filed a personal injury and wrongful death suit against Ferres in Superior Court on behalf of her deceased son and his two minor daughters The complaint seeks economic damages for funeral and burial expenses and losses to McKays estate with interest as well as the value of past and future economic damages including money goods and services McKays children would have received if he lived The civil case will move forward after Ferres is sentenced Oct 22 Jerzy Shedlock Columbian Breaking News Reporter 3607354522 col_cops Send an Email Please take a second to review our community guidelines Blogs Staff Blogs Home All Politics is Local Blazer Banter Brews in Clark Cannabis Chronicles Clark County Faces Digital Desk Community Its the Fair Corks and Forks LocalArts Community FYI98642 Home Made Gardening with Allen Health Notes

premises of supportive area businesses and later in leased gallery spaces Wittenberg University The university was created in 1817 through the merger of the University of Wittenberg founded in 1502

Subscribe to the CompellingTruthorg Newsletter Does the rainbow have a meaning What is the biblical significance of the rainbow The rainbow has gained popularity in recent years as certain ideological groups have adopted it as their logo However God has already assigned meaning to this atmospheric beauty In Scripture the presence of a rainbow was a message from God in fact God says it is my bow Genesis 913 it belongs to Him The first rainbow appears after the flood God was speaking to Noah giving him some commands and promises God said I have set my bow in the cloud and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth Genesis 913 The covenant God refers to is that He would never again flood the whole earth as He had done He told Noah that every time he saw a rainbow he could know that God had established a covenant with all flesh that is on the earth verse 17 The wording of Genesis 9 is interesting in that God says the rainbow will be a reminder for Himself to remember His covenant When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh When the bow is in the clouds I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth Genesis 91416 This does not imply that God needs reminding it is simply a way of saying that God will faithfully keep His covenant He is ever mindful of His promise In some places in Scripture clouds are a metaphor for trouble and disaster For the day is near the day of the Lord is near it will be a day of clouds a time of doom for the nations Ezekiel 303 cf Ezekiel 327 Of course in the days of Noah clouds brought about the destruction of the world So it is significant that God places the sign of His promise in the clouds When the storm clouds gather in a threatening sky and our thoughts turn toward judgment God places a reminder that this is not Judgment Day yet a rainbow shows the presence of Light in the midst of Darkness Other references to rainbows in the Bible are in relation to the glory of God Ezekiel 128 describes the majesty of the Lord this way Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain so was the appearance of the brightness all around In Revelation 423 John describes the beauty surrounding the throne of God At once I was in the Spirit and behold a throne stood in heaven with one seated on the throne And he who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian and around the throne was a rainbow that had the appearance of an emerald The glory of the Lord is a splendid beautiful sight Revelation 101 references a rainbow in a description of an angel Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven wrapped in a cloud with a rainbow over his head and his face was like the sun and his legs like pillars of fire All mention of rainbows in Scripture have a direct connection to the power and glory of God The sign of the rainbow was meant to be for all future generations Genesis 912 When we see a rainbow now we can let it be a reminder of our covenantkeeping God and His indescribable beauty Return to Truth about Everything Else
