Also from the Zhou dynasty, a jade crested parakeet, from southern China, 7.5 centimeters long. It could be a pendant but is more probably a finial.

And from the Samon Valley or earlyish Pyu cultures in Burma (200BCE-400CE), a carnelian bead that I think may be one of the malkohas (rainforest cookoos) - 6 cm long.
