We do not value antiques, just provide information. To ensure a valuation you will need to allow a dealer access to the bottle to gain their expert opinion.

It was marked on the bottom to indicate it was created for the emperor during the Ming dynasty. The holder of the bottle, nor myself, have a knowledge of the language to translate the signature of the artist.I would be most interested in knowing its approximate value as well as an estimate of when it was created and have pictures of the snuff bottle. Please advise if you might be interested in viewing the photos.
