Subject:Need help to identify/price antique bronze Chinese/Japanese incense urn with Shi Shi
Posted By: Erik Sun, Mar 01, 2015 IP: 76.94.194.245
Hello folks,
This bronze urn/vessel was my grandparents. They bought it around 1960 or so. There is very little information about it. Can anyone point me in a direction to know anything about it? I am including the card that was inside it also which is vague at best.
It just notes that it was probably from the 1850's or later. Chinese or Japasese? Shishi is at the top on the lid. Likely used as a ritual piece or for incense?
There was another urn they had that I am going to post also because I also have little idea about what that is as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
