It is exceptional to see a bronze censer of this type with the upper surface of the rim and the sides of the handles embellished with further cloisonne enamel design.

Compare to a censer in the Musee Guimet, Paris, accession no. 2547 donated by the Rothschild family, and one in the Pierre Uldry Collection, illustrated by Helmut Brinker and Albert Lutz, Chinese Cloisonne, The Pierre Uldry Collection, New York, 1989, no. 58.
