Ok, if you have belief in the teachings of demonized objects than my photo attachments should confirm your beliefs. If you do not believe than please explain my photos as so many sciences have tried and failed. This is not a trick and the transformations are real and this carved rock is of unknown form, very high density, harder than jadeite and has been dated to pre 17th century or older. So, please explain these phenonomons.

CHINESE ORNAMENT.
What you appear to have is an authentic or very good reproduction of a Daoist Shaman?s potion bottle.
The bottle was used for various rituals, including births, deaths, ordination of priests, ceremonies to frighten away evil spirits and for use for herbs/medicine to cure disease/illness.
Very often though the bottle would be empty-symbolically filled with protection ?gas? to fight evil.
Daoist ?magic? called internal alchemy, as opposed to external alchemy- feng shui-- was used to chease away evil and protect goodness.
The yin yang energies- symbolised in the shield, were also symbolised by the minerals- cinnabar and mercury.
Often when these minreals were found, a bottle was shaped from the rock, containing the minerals, or the minerals were put into a mixture of glass and jade.
Cinnabar is red mecuric sulphide, quicksilver was mercury, but very often some use of lead in with the mercury as well.
The two mixed together- cinnabar and quicksilver represented the yin - yang, heaven and earth mix and was thought to be immensely powerful
Hollowed into a container/bottle- the humidity, air temperature, sunlight, fire, candlelight- hand warmth- all porduced different combinations of colours-- like the ones you describe.
The Daoist shaman would use different colour combinations for different purification and cleansing rituals.
The lion, fu dog, and sometimes qirin-[Chinese uincorn]- were all used as ornaments to sygnify protection and the transofrmation of nasty energy into good stuff!!!
Contained in the minreals already mentioned are calcium and magnesium, very unstable and very reactive to heat and humidity--even to expansion of size- which once again explains the things you have seen
To read more- get Understanding Reality by Chang Po-tuan--University of Hawaii press- ISBN-0-8248-1139-9--read it all, but especially around page 85.
The language and style is quite difficult to understand!
The bottle, and the lion?s eyes- should be placed in the north-east or the north-west of a room/building- and should not face the front door- toilet or kitchen!
Hope this has helped!
