Japanese Meiji Bronze Champlevé Enamel Incense Burner, Geisha & Ryu/Shishi

About the Item

Japanese Meiji Period Bronze Champlevé Enamel Incense Burner w/ Geisha & Ryu/Shishi Presenting a splendid masterpiece from the revered Meiji Period, behold an exquisite Japanese bronze incense burner adorned with Champlevé enamel. This remarkable piece showcases captivating hand-carved bronze mounts depicting a geisha on the main bowl and a Ryu/Shishi atop its lid. The geisha, meticulously crafted with utmost precision, graces the central bowl. Flowing robes adorned with elegant spirals serenely encircle the vessel. In a harmonious tableau, the geisha delicately engages with a Sheng pipe. The crowning glory of this masterpiece lies in its magnificent bronze Ryu/Shishi, majestically positioned atop the burner's lid. The vibrant bronze scrolls enveloping the Ryu/Shishi visually capture the enchanting sounds emanating from the Geisha's Sheng performance below. Delicate scrolling cutouts beneath the feet of the mythical creature add an irresistible allure while acting as conduits for the graceful diffusion of incense smoke. Enhancing the regal charm of the burner, three patinated bronze jeweled elephant heads, with their elegantly curled trunks serving as feet, complete the captivating ensemble. Adorned with a stunning array of enamels, the jar's body and lid present an enthralling palette of greens, blues, reds, and whites. Intricate floral patterns, graceful scrolls, foliate designs, and geometric motifs intertwine in a mesmerizing composition, showcasing the highest level of craftsmanship. Resting upon a round bronze base encircled by a ribbon of meticulously hand-painted enamels, purposefully designed to harmonize with the main body, this burner exudes a vibrant elegance that complements its overall aesthetic .A testament to the skilled artistry of the Meiji period, this incense burner proudly bears the signature of its accomplished bronze artist, solidifying its authenticity and exceptional craftsmanship.
