Subject:Bronze Censer Oriental or Middle Eastern ?
Posted By: Steve Thu, Oct 08, 2015 IP: 2.121.236.206
Hello All
i have recently purchased this very Early looking Tripod censer or Vase.

it looks to be Bronze and my Gut feeling is it is Pre 18th century. and likely to be Chinese.

however i can not find any similar examples. so if anyone out there could help at all that would be very useful
thank you in advance
Steve

It looks like it might be a Japanese Ikebana with stubby feet.

Cheers,
Stan
