Chinese snuff bottles are a pretty specialized catergory and there might not be someone here that feels comfortable enough with the knowledge they have to throw out an answer to you. I know almost nothing about these things other than the antique sites and shops I visit are loaded with them. Mostly modern versions. I've seen dynasty period ones in ivory and jade from reputable dealers and the price tags are high. A trick I've learned when I have a question and can't get an answer is to comb through the ebay listings of the item in question, find one or two people that have better than average feedback scores and ask them if it would be alright if you email them a few pics and questions about the item that has you stumped. I mostly do this with stoneware jugs I come across and usually get some help pretty readily.
