A BRONZE HALBERD EARS CENSER WITH ORIGINAL STAND
Qing Dynasty |
Fine quality pure bronze with a dark brown textured skin covering the entire surface, beautiful with classic elegance. The piece has a round opening, a narrowed neck and a round abdominal. A pair of round halberd handles extend from either side. From below the abdominal section, it gradually narrows onto a round foot, the diameter of which is much smaller than that of the opening. On the bottom, the four characters, Treasure of the Ancient World, are written in seal script across two rows and embossed in a square frame. Also attached to the censer are a round base and graceful contours, all held up by three short legs. Not only does this delicate censer ingeniously pair a narrow circular foot and round base, the piece also exudes a celestial sense of beauty and harmony. |
