A large snuff fashioned from Burr Ash. Some superb craftsmanship has been used to create this piece. The lid has a central mother of pearl cartouche with an oversized lip. Each end has substantial brass binding and upon opening there is a fine polished interior. This is a beautiful looking piece and is very tactile.
