Bird Figurine

By grishesmoni, 7 November, 2012
Description

I have a bird figurine, there are no stamps or markings but it does have a gold foil sticker that says United China Collectors Series Hand Crafted Japan on the bottom.  It is very good to excellent condition, I don't find any chips or cracks on it.  I know nothing about it, it sat on a shelf at Grandpa's for a great long time.  I have in the past sold items at a yard sale on the cheap to find out later they were worth a little bit and don't want to make that mistake again.  any help would be appreciated.  I live in a rural area so no appraisers are available near me.  Thank you!
