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.
