A cast bronze opium weight from Burma in the form of a stylized bird, likely a rooster, duck or mythical bird figure, standing atop a bell-shaped base. The bird features a pointed crest, prominent round eye, and folded wings pressed against its rounded body. The dome-shaped base is decorated with an incised horizontal band containing short vertical marks. The weight has a dark grey-brown patina with traces of green verdigris on the lower base, consistent with aged bronze. Standing 4.1 cm tall and weighing 79 g, this compact trading weight shows a smooth, worn surface from handling.
