This German snuff bottle from the 1950s is crafted from layered, mosaic glass. Its form is a flattened, rounded bottle with a short, narrow neck, measuring 10 cm in height, 7 cm in width, and 2.5 cm in depth. The primary color is a cool, translucent white, animated by marbled swirls of deep navy blue and black, creating dynamic, organic patterns. The surface is glossy and smooth, with seamless transitions between colors and no visible joins. The base is ground flat, attesting to careful finishing typical of mid-century German glassworks. The original 'Althbayerische Kristal Glashutte' factory label is preserved, confirming authenticity. The bottle remains in excellent condition, free from damage or signs of wear, and retains its original luster. This small bottle captures the finesse of 1950s modernism: biomorphic lines and mosaic motifs evoke the creative experimentation with form and color that defined postwar German design. The glass—cool yet vibrant—seems to tell a story from an era when everyday objects were granted an unexpected artistic dimension. Its swirling patterns, reminiscent of flowing water or smoke, imbue the piece with a sense of movement, as if the interior were in a state of gentle, perpetual flux. The snuff bottle could serve as a striking accent on a living room console or among a vintage glass collection on a shelf. It would suit interiors inspired by modernism, where its biomorphic lines and dynamic patterns could be
