      Is there a tick on the inside of the bottle lid? It's a snuff bottle. I think that is a Chinese chop on the bottom. Used to print the name of a person in red on documents.

      Yes there is one on the lid. It is heavy. Was wondering if maybe ivory.

      Welcome to CW :-)

      Your snuff bottle has some age, vintage, but resin, see my post there, many links to explore :

      The marks are seal marks ... pic one need to go to the left 90 degrees and pic two 90 degrees to the right.
