The collection was started in the 1970s by a businessman who bought in the Far East and Australia while travelling, acquiring his first bottles in Tokyo, Singapore and Hong Kong. A catalogue of the collection, which represents most types of snuff bottles, was produced by dealer Robert Kleiner in 2012.

Among the works on offer is this porcelain bottle decorated in underglaze-blue and white with a stylised lotus scroll based on the classic Ming dynasty lotus scroll, which is available for £1200.
