Where: Shaw Foundation Foyer, ACM Empress Place

Snuff-taking was all the rage in Chinese court circles at the end of the 17th century. By the 18th century, this practice of sniffing snuff spread to the wealthy outside the court. Beautiful bottles used to contain snuff (grounded tobacco) were crafted and collected as prized possessions. This exhibition showcases 355 gems from the outstanding snuff bottle collection of Denis SK Low, who is a Director & Patron of the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society and Patron of the Singapore-Chinatown Snuff Bottle Society.

Mr. Low has been collecting snuff-bottles for 28 years and his collection includes some of the world’s finest pieces. In this exhibition, you will be able to feast your eyes on imperial pieces made out of jade and enamels on copper and gold, and snuff bottles fashioned out of glass, porcelain and interesting stones. Find out more about these miniature works of art which are on public display for the very first time.
