“Chinese Snuff Bottles from the Collection of Mary and George Bloch”
By Robert W.L. Kleiner.
Published in London by Sydney L. Moss Ltd. in 1987.
The superbly-produced catalog to this major collection. The Bloch
Collection of snuff bottles was auctioned in a multi-session sale
several years ago by Bonhams to record prices. The Bonham's press
release noted- "Several great collections of snuff bottles were formed
in the early 20th Century in Asia, Europe and the USA. However, no
collection formed in the modern era can rival that formed by the late
George Bloch (1920-2009). It consists of bottles purchased at auction
and from leading international snuff bottle dealers from 1983 onwards.
Extensively published and exhibited at the Hong Kong Museum of Art and
British Museum, it is widely regarded as the highest quality collection
of snuff bottles in private hands. The contents of this world famous
collection span three centuries of top-level Chinese craftsmanship."
Hardcover. 8.5"x11.5", 237 pages, color illustrations, dust jacket.
Minor soil, but otherwise clean and nice, with a tight binding. $125
net.
