GBP 300 

A rare Chinese bronze huqqa base ring with pierced decoration. Diameter: 11.6 cm. 17/18th cent.

Polished. No damage.

I have had this piece for many years but never found a Chinese bronze huqqa base to match it, though the form is known in porcelain and Canton enamel at least, so somewhere a bronze one must exist.
