Description
White English porcelain, circa 1880
Large snuff bottle, identical to the previous one, depicting a full-length figure from the 17th century wearing a feathered hat and a ruff, carrying a basket on his left arm and holding his pipe in his right hand. One cannot help but be reminded of Molière’s *Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme*.
Marked ‘1358’ on the base. English provenance, like the previous piece?
Chip to the hat.
Height: 26 cm
