About the Item

Antique Chinese Cloisonné Bronze Censer, Late Qing Dynasty A fine antique Chinese tripod bronze incense burner (censer) dating from the late Qing Dynasty to the early 20th century. Crafted from richly patinated bronze with intricate cloisonné enamel decoration featuring geometric scroll motifs in harmonious shades of turquoise, deep blue, green, and subtle yellow. The censer stands elegantly on tripod feet and is accented by lion-mask handles; one side retains its original bronze ring handle. The domed cover is pierced for ventilation, though its original finial is absent. The vessel showcases beautiful natural patina and oxidation consistent with genuine age and use, enhancing its antique appeal. A handsome example of Chinese cloisonné craftsmanship, offering decorative charm and historical presence. Dimensions: Height: 16.5 cm Width: 16 cm Depth: 14 cm Condition: Good antique condition. Original surface patina and signs of wear consistent with age. Missing finial on lid and one handle ring. Oxidation and minor enamel losses typical of genuine period pieces.
