We obtained near-infrared observations and re-analysed data from the VISTA/VVV survey to outline the brightness evolution. In our VLT/NaCO images, we discovered a halo of scattered light around V346~Nor with a size of about 0.04 arcsec (30 au). The VISTA data outlined a well-defined minimum in the light curve at late 2010/early 2011, and tentatively revealed a small-amplitude periodic modulation of 58 days.
