Antique Chinese Porcelain Covered Box with cover Hand Painted Bamboo Bird 3D x2H

Antique Chinese Porcelain Covered Box w/ cover Hand Painted decorated with Bamboo and Bird (on the cover). Size 3"D x2"H. I was told this box probably as old as.

16th Century, based on the red color and the base/bottom clay style. Excellent antique condition, with minor factory imperfections, a few minor old chips along the rims (last two pictures), no hairlines, or other damage.
