This natural inside painted snuff bottle depicts a white egret flying away from a lotus pond. The ancient Chinese admired the beautiful movements of the egret. The egret is white and clean, therefore without stain. The term for ‘single egret’ is homophonous with the phrase “all the way”. An egret and a lotus plant are a pun for: ‘May you enjoy an affluent lifestyle throughout your life’. Real size: 7.8 x 5.6 cm.
