Incense burner with cover

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The incense burner with cover by an unknown artist shows a rounded, large vessel body resting on a flat base. The body features a wide mouth and a smaller circular opening on top of the cover. Two handles protrude from either side, adorned with carvings. The vessel's surface showcases intricate carvings, predominantly featuring curvilinear patterns. A small, circular depression sits atop the cover. The object rests on a flat surface against a plain background, with a small plaque in front bearing an inscription.
