Antique Bronze Incense Burner
The piece is a bronze water buffalo with a dragon on it's back. the piece is 15 1/2" tall, 11 1/2" long and 5" wide. There is a flaw that will be enclosed with photos. It was brought back from China by my great grandfather who at the time was the treasurer of the Los Angeles Furniture Company.
I do not have any of that information it has been in the family for 120 years.

Dear Maggi,
A censer for decorative purposes made for the export to western world. Its Chinese and I would date it first half 20th century. It's old enough to be of interest for collectors and Asian art lovers. Details are nice and the piece is an eye catcher. My estimation is based on market prices on an auction with enough international exposure ( with prescription to Invaluable, live auctioneers or other good platform ).
