Among snuff bottles there is a category known as the 'table bottle', referring to a larger vessel that is not readily carried on the person (that is, not of pocket size) and was instead intended to stand on a desk or table, either for appreciation or to hold a larger quantity of snuff.
Gold-inlaid jade snuff bottles are mostly flattened in form, though their shapes vary widely. The National Palace Museum, Taipei, holds several examples: a gourd-shaped bottle (acc. no., close in size to the present bottle, both nearly 8.0cm high), a tall bottle-shaped example (acc. no.), and a squat bottle-shaped example (acc. no.). There was also one from the Mary and George Bloch Collection, of tall and straight-sided shape, sold at Sotheby's, Hong Kong, 23 Nov 2014, . Among bottles of this type, an example carved from spinach-green jade, as with the present bottle, was sold at Bonhams, New York, 16 Mar 2015, . The 'figure' carving in the front in the current lot is however extremely rare.
鼻烟壺中有⌈桌壺⌋一説，指體形稍大、不便隨身攜帶（或非袖珍型），而是放置在案頭、書桌上供鑑賞或貯存較多鼻煙的定式容器。
本壺背詩收錄於《欽定四庫全書》的《御製詩三集》卷六十七，題目為《池上居四詠·其三·松》。玉上填金鼻煙壺，大多作扁器，而形狀各異。臺北故宮博物院藏若干件，有匏形(acc.no.，該壺與本壺尺寸亦相近，都接近8公分高度，亦為⌈桌壺⌋)、長壺形(acc.no.)、矮壺形(acc.no.)，瑪麗及佐治伯樂收藏中亦有一枚長壺直壁，2014年於香港蘇富比釋出，見蘇富比2014年11月23日，。該類型壺中，亦有與本品同樣以碧玉成壺，見邦瀚斯，紐約，2015年3月16日，，正面刻以人物，卻屬少數。
