Porcelain snuff bottles represent a distinctive and prized category within the realm of snuff bottle artistry. Porcelain bottles showcased a unique blend of exquisite craftsmanship and artistic expression, allowing artisans to employ traditional Chinese painting and imagery that was so appreciated on other types of works larger stationary works, such as hanging scrolls, furniture, and large vases. Porcelain bottles also allowed for a wider range of shapes and sizes over natural materials that required carving and hollowing-out. While it is challenging to generalize the Qing emperors' preferences for specific materials, porcelain snuff bottles were undoubtedly part of the imperial collections, and highly appreciated for their artistic merit, diversity, and cultural significance.

Literature comparison:
Cylindrical blue and white bottles painted with dragons are known to have been made during the nineteenth century. The group is discussed in Hugh Moss, ‘The Wrong End of the Dragon’, Journal of the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society, Winter 2008, pp. 16-22, where it is suggested that these bottles were inspired by columns decorated with wrapped carpets embroidered with dragons.
