This piece appears to be 18th or early 19th century and has traditional bat and cloud cloisonne enamel shaft with gilt bronze dragon head with some champleve embellishments. We have no idea what it was originally used for but has a pipe in the mouth and has been altered. Would make an exceptional cane head.
