Small Dha

Actually, this is a Shan dha hmyaung. We used to call the style "Metro Kachin," but subsequent research pointed toward Shan/Tai (Shan State in eastern Burma, or northern Thailand).

Age is very hard to estimate, but it likely is early 20th or later 19th century. The quality looks quite good.
