Japanese Bronze Incense Burner, Koro, w/ Kirin, Taisho Period, circa 1920 Japan
Located in Austin, TX
An elegant Japanese cast and lacquered bronze incense burner, koro, topped with a mythical kirin, Taisho Period, circa 1920, Japan.
The tall koro of tripod form, with three elegant legs with outward curved feet resting on an integral circular base. The compressed body cast with a delightful scene of a pair of birds roosting on branches of flowering plum. A pair of monster masks adorn the sides. Rising from the top of their heads are a dramatic pair of horns, joined at the top, in the form of a Buddhist mandorla. The monster mask theme continues below, with their tongues forming the legs.
The pierced cover of the koro features a fantastic kirin (qilin in Chinese), a mythical chimeric animal with the head of horned dragon, body of a deer, and legs and hooves of a horse. Despite its ferocious appearance, the kirin is a benevolent animal, whose appearance foretells the arrival or passing of a great sage or ruler.
