Description

A stunning and very large (one of the largest we have seen) 19th Century Chinese bronze censor on its original stand, c1850. Beautifully cast and decorated, it has stylised elephant head handles - and a pierced lid, topped with a lovely large Dog of Fo / Fo Lion finial.

The main body is heavily decorated with raised birds, and has applied character or seal marks. The quality of the casting and the sheer size of this piece gives it a real presence.

It has aged beautifully, with good colour/patina. The only defect we can see is a small dent in the body, which has been highlighted in the photographs. Overall we would say it is in good condition. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact us with any questions or if you would like to view the item.

Size: 44 cm tall x 26 cm wide. We will happily ship worldwide but this is large and heavy so please contact us for a bespoke quote for your Country.

Date of Manufacture

Curious Antiques has dated this piece to the 19th Century.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
