Large patinated bronze Japanese koro incense burner
Japanese, late 19th Century

This monumental koro is modelled from patinated bronze as an ovoid bowl surmounted with a tiered and pierced lid set above a stem comprised of a writhing dragon and crashing waves, all supported on an integral shaped base.
