These two museum quality cloisonne enamelled censors in the shape of phoenix or mythological birds are a matched pair. Each one measures 17 inches tall by 13 inches wide by 6 inches in depth. They are very ornate with fan tails. Their large, ornate tails are removable, opening them for a possible use as incense burners. They date from the Ching Dynasty (1644-1911). They are in outstanding condition, period. They are covered with double facing dragon and phoenix designs (the symbols of the emperor and empress). They also have archaic plant and bird designs overall. NOTE: These are outstanding and much more impressive in person than the photos would indicate. |
