A LUDUAN BRONZE CENSER, MING
China, 1368-1644. The bronze vessel with a pierced and removable lid, where the incense is inserted, the smoke then dramatically escaping through the luduan’s mouth. The beast portrayed with a single horn, bushy tail, bulging eyes, sharp fangs and the inevitable jingle bell suspended from its neck.

Provenance: From a private estate.
Condition: Remnants of gilding and old lacquer, extensive wear and traces of use as expected on a bronze from this period, some minor dents. Overall fine condition.
