Provenance: Sotheby's London, 11 October 1974, lot 109

This design features nine frolicking Buddhist lions playing with brocade balls, alluding to the popular belief that when a lion and lioness play together, their shed fur rolls into a ball and turns into a brave cub. The nine ( 九) lions ( 獅) also create a rebus for (九世同居), which may be translated as 'nine generations living together', further conveying blessings for familial harmony and a long family lineage.
The use of moulds in the production of snuff bottles developed primarily during the Qianlong reign, and by the end of the 18th century, moulded decoration was employed not only to define the overall shape, but also to provide the principal decorative elements of many bottles. The existence of bottles from similar moulds and rendered in different colours demonstrates the versatility of a single, moulded design. For example, both a famille rose and a gilt iron-red snuff bottle from a similar mould as the present piece, Jiaqing seal mark and of the period, are illustrated by H.Moss, V.Graham, and K.B.Tsang, , vol.6.2, Hong Kong, 2008, nos.1209 and 1210, and were later sold at Bonhams Hong Kong, 28 May 2010, lot 83 and Bonhams Hong Kong, 23 November 2010, lot 91. Compare also with a similar white-glazed snuff bottle, Jiaqing seal mark and of the period, which is illustrated in , Milan, 2007, no.H63, pp.172-173.
A related red-glazed moulded and reticulated 'Buddhist Lions' snuff bottle, Jiaqing seal mark and of the period, was sold at Christie's New York, 27 March 2018, lot 95.
