A tactile Scottish Georgian ram's horn snuff mull, with a silver, mounted lid and bearing a vacant cartouche. It is a handsome piece with a wonderful patina. The hinge is strong and retains its original cork seal. The lid closes well but sadly has a chip on the edge. A good piece in untouched original condition.
