An Unusual Chinese Han Dynasty Finial or Cover 206BC- 220AD

Ht. 6 1/4 ins. (15.8 cms) This unusual object may be the cover to a jar or some sort of finial, we have never seen anything like it before or, indeed, found any book illustrations of similar. Overall condition is good, although the tip of the bird's beak is broken off and the bird has possibly been reattached.
