Tang Dynasty Gold and Silver Artifacts: The Craftsmanship and Culture of a Peach-Shaped, Honeysuckle-Patterned, Hollow-Out, Five-Legged Silver Incense Burner
Total height 30.5 cm, weight 4100 g
Practical function: As an incense burner, the hollow structure is conducive to the distribution of fragrance, and it has the practical value of antibacterial, decontamination, and refreshing. The chain can be adjusted in height when hanging, and the five legs provide stable support when lying flat, adapting to different scenes.
This incense burner is a typical example of Tang Dynasty gold and silver craftsmanship, confirming the production level of the “gold and silver workshop” recorded in the “Six Codes of the Tang Dynasty”. Its excavation and collection provide valuable physical evidence for the study of Tang Dynasty gold and silver craftsmanship and cultural life.
