Incense Burner
Incense Burner by Izumi Seiichi, a sculpture of a dragon head emerging from a lotus flower, with the dragon's body forming the body of the incense burner. The dragon's head protrudes from the center of the lotus flower, with its mouth open and teeth visible. The dragon's body curves upwards behind the head, with waves on the skin. The lotus flower has a scalloped edge and sits on a base decorated with leaves. The base of the sculpture is a rock. The sculpture appears to be made of metal.
