Subject:Early gilded bronze server Japanese or Chinese?
Posted By: james Sun, Jul 01, 2007 IP: 24.148.154.92

Can anyone help me I.d. this mark or maybe date this piece? Any information would be great.I think the base metal is bronze with a gilded surface. Could be silver gilding. Thanks

Possible a food receptacle for containing small food bowls, offerings to monks, or Buhhda images.

Myanmar or Northern Thai, 19-20th Century brass work.

Couldn't read the seal.
