Its colours typically include blue-grey, gold, red, brown, and yellow, with swirling or flowing patterns that resemble shifting storm clouds. 本組鼻煙壺中一件以彼得石雕成。彼得石是一種具有獨特絲絹光澤和貓眼效應的玉髓類礦物，常被視為虎眼石的變種。其色彩多呈藍灰、金黃、紅褐及棕色，紋理呈旋渦或流動狀，視覺效果如暴風雲層般變幻。 For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
