CLASSIFICATION: ... moreBlue and White Painted Porcelain Snuff Bottle. ATTRIBUTION: Ancient China. Qing Dynasty, 19th Century. SIZE/MEASUREMENTS: Height: 63 millimeters(2 1/2 inches) Bowl Diameter: 50 millimeters(2 inches) Base Diameter: 26 millimeters(1 inch) CONDITION: Exceptionally good. Almost perfectly preserved, except for a missing stopper. A little wear consistent with any household item which is 150 or 200 years old. Not flawless, but certainly in an excellent state of preservation. DETAIL: A very cute. Splendidly preserved traditional blue and white porcelain snuff bottle so wonderfully characteristic of late Ming/early Qing Dynasty artwork. The tranquil depiction is that of three men conversing in a manicured park setting amongst large birds, tress, foliage, shrubs, etc. The glaze is entirely intact, vibrant cobalt blue, and the condition of the snuff bottle, except for the fact that it is missing a stopper. There is very little of the crackling/crazing of the glaze which so oftentimes afflicts antique porcelain and ceramic finishes. There is of course a little minor wear– we’re not saying it is as when new. But this is as good as one can reasonably expect of a porcelain snuff bottle somewhere around 150 or 200 years old. It’s not perfect, but it is about as close to perfect as you will ordinarily find of an authentic 19th century porcelain snuff bottle like this, and there are no repairs. Of course realistically one would expect some blemishes a century or two after it was produced, and there are no surprises here except that there are so few blemishes. There are a few production blemishes. Again really not noticeable, and quite typical of hand-crafted porcelain of the late Ming/early Qing Dynasties. These are normal potter blemishes associated with hand produced ceramics(bumps, warts, and acne pits) All of these blemishes are virtually unnoticed– but

Roman Bronze Gemstone Ring Size 5 1/2. CLASSIFICATION: Ancient Roman Bronze Ring. Antique Handcrafted Nineteenth Century Two Carat Unakite Semi-Precious Gemstone.

SIZE/MEASUREMENTS: Fits ring size 5 1/2(U.S. Diameter: 18mm(outer dimensions excluding gemstone) 16 1/2mm(inner diameter) Bezel: 8mm(breadth) 8 1/2mm(height) 1 1/2mm(thickness) Excluding gemstone. Gemstone: 8mm(diameter) 3 1/2mm(thickness) 1.91 carats(approximate weight) Tapered Width Band: 6mm(at bezel) 3 1/2mm(at sides) 2mm(at back) Weight: 1.16 grams(without gemstone) CONDITION: Very good! Completely intact. Heavy wear consistent with sustained(ancient) usage, very light(surface pitting caused by contact with earth while buried) Professionally conserved. DETAIL: A handsome. Nicely constructed Roman bronze ring with a raised platform, six-sided bezel which at one time would have been engraved. However the ring was worn for such an extended period of time that though the ring is entirely intact and its integrity undiminished, nonetheless whatever engraved design it once bore was worn smooth. It is quite likely that the ring was worn most of a lifetime, as it would take most of a life time to wear an engraved bezel smooth. In fact the extent of the wear is significant enough that it suggests that the ring might have been worn during the lifetime of more than one owner. Perhaps it was a family heirloom handed down between generations. Though the ring was not originally produced to hold a gemstone. The large, flat bezel seemed to invite a gemstone. So we mounted a large, natural, antique, handcrafted Siberian Unakite semi-precious gemstone using jeweler’s epoxy. The gemstone is quite secure, but if you at time in the future wished to remove it, this could
