H:5.5cm(2.17in) D:18.5cm(7.28in) Weight:1410g(3.11lb)This censer is a masterpiece of study bronze in the Qing Dynasty, imitating the style of Xuande Furnace.

The censer body is in gui-style, with beast-head ring ears on both sides and a circular foot below. The lines are smooth and the shape is regular and grand. As an incense burning ornament on the desk of Qing literati, it symbolizes "peace and good luck", with extremely high artistic, historical and collection value.
