Description from the seller
Antique Chinese bronze incense burner (koro) & champlevé vase - Bronze, Enamel - China - circa 1900 (Late Qing / Early Republic)
Description:
Beautiful harmonious set consisting of a tripod incense burner and a matching vase, manufactured in China around 1900. Both objects share a similar patina and a traditional decoration of floral enamel on a turquoise background.
• Incense burner: Decorated with champlevé/cloisonné enamel, standing handles and legs in the shape of monster masks (Taotie). Fitted with a cast square seal mark on the bottom, surrounded by a geometric meander pattern.
Weight: 1190 grams, 17 cm high and 15 cm wide and deep.
• Vase: Decorated with a champlevé band with floral motifs and cast spiral patterns on the neck and foot. Unsigned.
Weight: 328 grams, 11.3 cm high and 7.2 cm wide and deep.
In good, used antique condition with a beautiful patina of age.
Condition:
• Incense burner: The handles are historically at least slightly tilted. The lid is functionally pierced, but misses the original bronze knob (the top has been worn smooth through decades of use and polishing). Inside shows authentic oxidation and incense residues.
• Vase: Fully intact with light, normal age-related wear to the enamel.
See the detail photos for an accurate personal impression of the condition.
Will be carefully packed and shipped by registered mail.
