A Japanese bronze incense burner, featuring a lion-finial lid and three legs.

The lid is topped with a sculpted mythical lion, while the lid surface is adorned with openwork floral patterns. The body of the burner is decorated with relief-carved scrolling vine (arabesque) motifs and features handles on both sides. It rests on three raised legs; the base is solid and bears no maker’s mark.
