A CHINESE CLOISONNE ENAMEL CENSER AND COVER
QING DYNASTY, QIANLONG PERIOD (1736-1795)
The slightly compressed globular body supported on three upturned dragon-fish-form legs, set to the shoulder with a pair of lion mask-handles suspending loose rings, the body decorated around with lotus blossoms borne on leafy foliate scrolls and bats, below a band of ruyi heads, the domed cover with three bats alternated with shou roundels
