Incense Burner

KOREA; Goryeo dynasty

The bowl of this incense burner is supported by three curved legs ending in animals’ paws. At the top of the legs, there is a trefoil design where the legs are riveted to the bowl. At the top of the bowl is a rim. The lid is inserted into the bowl and has a beast in the center. There are four holes in the lid allowing the smoke to disperse.
