A CHINESE CRYSTAL DRAGON MOTIF CENSER

拍品描述

Standing 13 cm tall and spanning 17 cm in width, this elegant censer is carved from translucent smoky rock crystal boasting soft dark tonal depth across its polished facade. The rounded bowl is incised with delicate overlapping lotus-petal patterns, flanked by symmetrically sculpted chilong dragon handles that curve outward from both sides. Its domed lid is crowned with another intricately rendered coiled dragon finial, while a slim gilded band trims the circular pedestal base for refined contrast. Fine craftsmanship accentuates natural crystalline inclusions and fluid draconic details. Blending botanical and mythical ornamentation gracefully, this exquisite vessel is a standout addition to curated collections of premium Chinese hardstone incense wares.
