<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 204059, member: 2844&quot;]These items are often listed as Tibetan because of the mounts of silvertone material which is often called Tibetan silver or Miao silver. The Miao are an ethnic minority in China. However these items are Chinese, made of serpentine or another green stone (quartz?). They are still being made.</p><p>The decorated stopper on the snuff bottle is in a nice old style which you don&#039;t see much on new bottles, so I&#039;d say vintage. The bone spoon can be put back in the stopper, just wrap some cotton around it and push gently back in the tube at the bottom of the stopper.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good quality new snuff bottles are often hollow, just like the old ones.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
