content: Snuff bottle, made from milky grey, translucent stone (agate?). The sides are carved with swirling lines. The lid is made from a pink stone, with a metal plate on the bottom, from which extends a tiny metal scoop. Slight damage on the lid from an impact point created two cracks along the top. All men have these for use at special occasions. This is a common size and color for a snuff bottle (Video Footage, Tape 4, 7/10/02).
