Darn, I was hoping it was much older. So anywhere up to about the 1910's-ish? If it makes any difference, the inside in glazed brown and the outside is not glazed, bare clay type.

A final accessory for every serious snuff taker is an airtight snuff jar to preserve his snuff for weeks at a time. Historically, glass has been the most popular material in making snuff jars, however porcelain and pewter are popular materials as well. http://www.snuffguide.com/snuff-accessories
