JAPAN, Meiji period
Large incense burner in bronze with brown patina
The base takes the form of a dragon with a sinewy body, its head raised towards the sky, its mouth open and spouting a jet of water, forming the support for the incense burner. The latter is baluster-shaped with relief decoration of birds among flowering branches, flanked by two dragon-shaped handles. The domed lid is perforated with cloud motifs and topped with a bird of prey perched on a globe.
Total height: 114 cm
