About this item
Large late 19th century Chinese bronze container,c1880. This is an unusual piece and I am not sure of the purpose. There is a square hole on one side and on the other a metal sliding cover with a removable metal holder with holes along the body, so possibly for tea or hot coals? It has lovely form and shape with a highly stylised carrying handle and nice decorative panels around the body . There are character marks to the base. The metal has taken on good colour/patina and it displays well. Overall condition is good with no obvious issues. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions.
Price includes FREE UK delivery. Please contact me regarding international shipping.
Size: 19cm tall x 19cm wide x 18cm deep, weight 1.8kg.
