Hair crystal contains fine, needle-like inclusions which, based on their colour, may be identified as tourmaline in the present lot. While crystal was mined in Fujian, Hubei and Hunan, the general absence of hair crystal carvings prior to the Qing dynasty suggests that the primary source of this material was likely Xinjiang, as its conquest by the Qing dynasty in 1759 would have facilitated access for Chinese lapidaries. Its resemblance to hair, its similarity to calligraphic brushstrokes, and the interpretative possibilities it offered would all have strongly appealed to Chinese taste.
Compare with a larger hair crystal snuff bottle of similar shape, 1730-1870, illustrated by H.Moss, V.Graham, and K.B.Tsang, , vol.2.1, Hong Kong, 1998, no.194, which was later sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 25 May 2014, lot 1039.
A related hair crystal snuff bottle, 19th century, was sold at Sotheby's New York, 23 March 2011, lot 769.
