Bronze incense burner

Seeing this incense burner, one can truly feel the unimaginable creativity of humanity to manufacture this kind of saint art ware. The lower part of the body has the appearance of a traditional bronze Ding, with three hoof-shaped feet decorated with the beast’s face. The abdomen of the Ding is decorated with a big Tao Tie with buffalo horns. The two sides of the Ding are decorated with two curled dragons, each with a hanging link. The cover of the Ding is a tower with an openwork interlock pattern consisting of curled snakes. Two sides of the tower are also decorated with two dragons with head turned and curled tail. Details of the four dragons are very clearly displayed, even the small lamella are portrayed extremely carefully. The whole layout of the incense burner is symmetrical and splendid.
