cma-japanese-art: Incense Burner, late 1800s, Cleveland Museum of Art: Japanese ArtThis incense burner emulates Chinese porcelain in its glaze and form. The wild profusion of flowers on the bronze lid is a deliberate counterpoint to the elegant simplicity of the burner’s body. A number of prominent Meiji-period ceramicists explored classical Chinese forms and glazes even as they also produced stoneware with Japanese-style glazes.Size: Diameter of mouth: 14.6 cm (5 ¾ in.); Overall: 12.4 cm (4 7/8 in.)Medium: Porcelain with gilt bronze coverhttps://clevelandart.org/art/1972.88 -- source link
