Archaic style rectangular incense burner
Rectangular incense burner with a flat top and four legs. The body of the incense burner has a perforated design with geometric patterns. There are two rectangular panels on the front and back with raised borders of dots and lines. The top of the incense burner has scrolling designs around the edge. A mythical creature is on top, resembling a dragon or qilin with wings and a flame-like tail. The creature appears to be looking to the left. The overall shape and decoration suggest an archaic style, and the material appears to be dark metal, likely bronze.
