描述

  • bronze
sturdily cast as a mythical beast standing foursquare, with jaws agape and teeth bared, its horned head forming a hinged cover to allow access to the interior, the beast with finely delineated mane and tail flying behind, all above a well modelled stout body detailed with stylised markings

Condition

The incense burner is generally in good condition, with some expected wear especially at the join between the cover and the body. Some pitting in areas and minute dents all consistent with its age and type.
