Condition

The incense burner is in overall good condition. There was most likely originally a cover which is now missing. There is typical minor nibbling or occasional nicks the rim of the incense burner and the edges of the handles, including a small chip to one beast's ear (approx. 0.5 cm). There is also a light polished area along the edge of the other handle (approx. 1 cm), possibly to to conceal a chip.
