Antique Chinese Small Bronze Tripod Censor Decorated And Marked Pre 19th

Description

A recent Estate Auction piece. An antique, pre-nineteenth century, small bronze Chinese tripod censor with wooden lid. Age is unknown but piece is old. In normal light censor looks black. In brighter light you can see all the decorative detail. Must have been beautiful new. There is a maker mark on the bottom. I tried to get a good pic but it was tough. A terrific heavy little piece. Not sure if the wood lid is original. It fits perfect but has a break on one side. Lid has some age to it though. Almost seems too perfect not be original. We are not professionals in this area but our guess is maybe 17th Century to 18th. Could be older. A terrific eye catching piece that drew me in to bring it home. I will ship Priority insured where available or Global.
