Antique Chinese porcelain censer in the form of a lotus pod with wonderfully sculpted, red-accented petals. The lid is gilt and the handles are two lotus buds with curled leaves. The large base cascades downwards in beautiful deep blue, and has the image of a waterfowl and a lotus bud on its front and back.
