A TALL AND IMPRESSIVE PARCEL GILT BRONZE KORO (INCENSE BURNER) AND COVER, ATTRIBUTED TO THE MIYAO COMPANY

Japan, Meiji period (1868-1912)

The koro of rounded square form, fitted with a metal inset, the sides with two shaped panels in gold, copper, and shakudo takazogan to depict a rakan and oni conversing, the arhat wearing loose robes and holding a small figure of Kannon while the demon holds a staff, the reverse panel depicting pheasants and peony, the body cast with raised floral diaper and foliate designs against an archaistic scroll ground and flanked by two scrolling cloud-form handles. The cover similarly cast and surmounted by a boy wearing a gold-inlaid robe decorated with clouds and flowers, standing in a dynamic pose beside a red-capped crane with silvered body and plumage. The vessel is supported on four long legs issuing from fierce dragon heads atop a tiered base which is crisply cast with stylized butterflies surrounding a ho-o bird against a diapered ground, a superbly patinated and gold-inlaid figure of Kannon wearing a long flowing robe with deeply incised folds standing atop the base which is raised on four short feet decorated with gold-inlaid ho-o birds. Unsigned, however confidently attributed to the Miyao company of Yokohama.

HEIGHT 91 cm
WEIGHT 14.6 kg

Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, minimal casting flaws, few minuscule nicks, occasional light surface scratches.
