I was drifting toward the "sino-tibetan" as there seems to be some feeling that this sort of work is tibetan.

I forgot to mention that I have two of these, but they do not match in decoration. The other is inlayed with gold and silver and has bats and shou symbols. Almost identical in form and base material.

A head ornament is a fascinating idea, never crossed my mind, I will look into that.
