History Of Cattaraugus Knives
The Cattaraugus Company was started by John Champlin and his
son Tint in 1882. It was first incorporated under the name J.B.F.
Champlin and Son as a wholesale distribution company based in
Little Valley, New York. The business proved to be a successful
endeavor, and it soon branched into a knife production company
named Cattaraugus.

In 1890, Mr. Champlin purchased cutlery manufacturing
equipment from a failed business called the Beaver Falls Cutlery
factory. Because Champlin started in the knife business as a
wholesaler for a company who Imported German and English
knives he had great knowledge about the cutlery business. As a
wholesaler, he knew the market well, and he knew the
shortcomings of the U.S. knife manufacturers. His plan was
simple. He believed that the business would thrive if he could
providing the highest quality cutlery available. In order to achieve
this goal, he hired the best cutlers and provided them with the
highest quality materials. This combination proved to be
successful. Champlin brought in cutlers from Germany, England,
and other U.S. manufacturers. The knives that were created in
these early years set the quality standard by which all other U.S.
manufacturers were measured.

	Vintage Chinese glass snuff bottle is in great condition. No chips or cracks. Delicate interior hand painting of shrimp or lobster crawling on the ocean floor. Measurements: 2 1/2in. tall by 2. 2.5in. wide. History of Snuff Bottles:: Tobacco usage spread from America To Europe to China during the 17th Century. Europeans carried their boxes and took a pinch with their fingertips. The Chinese upper class, because of their lengthy fingernails, found this inconvenient and devised a bottle with a fitted stopper and attached spoon. These objects soon became objects of art. Snuff bottles were fashioned from precious and semi-precious stones, glass, porcelain and pottery, wood, metals, and ivory. Glass and transparent stone bottles often were enhanced further with delicate hand paintings, some done on the interiors of the bottle.
