This is a nice antique possibly ancient Chinese terra cotta temple or roof tile decorated with an insect type mythical beast. I\'m not certain exactly how old the tile is, I know that it\'s quite old. I had a fellow antique dealer look at them as well and he believes they could date to the 13th century possibly earlier. I\'m selling it as is, unknown age but I guarantee it\'s an antique. In pretty nice shape as the pics show with some imperfections / wear from age and it comes exactly as shown.The back of the tile has remnants of glue or something else where it was once affixed to something.It measures approximately 5 3/4\" x 2 3/4\"Please see my other tiles as well.Keep in mind the shipping price also covers handling fees, packaging materials & time, not just postage.Shipping Calculator is often wrong please contact me for an accurate international shipping price.See our store for our other items.
