About the Item
A Chinese Finely Cast 19th century bronze vessel
This bold and stylish Chinese shaped hexagonal vessel is heavily cast in solid bronze. It has a very pleasing shape which is enhanced by the pair of decorative ring handle mounts to each side. At the base there is a flat plane foot and above the lower section is cast with raised carp fish, one fish to each facet. The broad middle section has an assortment of similar raised decoration with exotic birds, shoals of carp, and floating Chinese lanterns. The upper section to the neck is cast with four bands of detailed flower heads. The rim is plain and flat to match the foot. This heavy bronze vessel has a good green/brown patination. This vessel is in good condition. There are a few small holes in the bottom caused through age and wear as shown in the photographs. Circa 1860.

- 19th century Chinese bronze cencer with Buddhist lion decoration circa 1860Located in Central England, GBThis large Chinese bronze censer dates to circa 1860. It is made in three parts, stand, vessel, and lid. The lid has pierced decorative panels with pine trees and a bold Buddhist lion finial for lifting. The censer has lifting handles in the shape of bamboo to each side and again also has panels with pine forests with mythical beasts and side mounts in the form of Buddhist lion mastheads. It is raised on four shaped legs with a beast mask head at the top and sits on the raised and pierced stand. The decoration on this piece is all hand finished with chasing and engraving giving good detail. The censer has a green/brown patina. Circa 1860 Censers are a type of vessel for burning incense. In many cultures burning incense has spiritual and religious connotations which influence the design and decoration of the censer. The lion is one of Buddhism’s most potent symbols. Traditionally the lion is associated with regality, strength and power. It is therefore an appropriate symbol of Buddha who, tradition has it, was a regal prince. As Buddhist priests and monks from India, they brought with them stories of stone Asiatic lions...Category
