These unusual kids neither see, speak, nor hear any evil. Hand-painted porcelain snuff bottles in underglaze blue and white bear the traditional Chinese ideograms for 'health', 'wealth', and 'prosperity'. Each bottle has a tiny spoon which lifts out from the top. From the time Europeans introduced snuff (powdered tobacco) 300 years ago, Chinese craftsmen have turned the production of snuff bottles into a minor art form. Bottles are 2.25" tall and weigh 1.8 ozs. Set of three children includes richly-grained rosewood stand. Stand design varies, please let us choose.
