Han Dynasty, four-character dehui yunri mark, 18th century
The domed scroll weight masterfully carved as a mythical bird with a single horn and pointed beak, surmounting a circular base with its wings outstretched as if ready for flight, the slightly flared wings flanking a bulbous body, the six grooved long tail feathers elegantly curled in various directions, all meticulously incised with a well-defined feather pattern rendering a vivid movement, the interior of the base hollowed and incised with a later added four-character 'dehui yunri' inscription encircled by a band of incised cloud scrolls, the smoothly polished stone of greenish-yellow tone suffused with russet and black inclusions. 6.5cm (2 1/2in) diam.
