    This snuff bottle must be all about love
    There's a pair of peacocks with a red rose on one side
    Peacock (?? - k?ng què) - dignity, beauty, activate luck, fame, ‘the heavenly phoenix on earth’
    I don't know what kind of birds these are - perhaps parrots?
    Anyway a lovely "love" bottle!
