Description
A charming vintage hand-hammered brass incense censer featuring a hexagonal form, pierced quatrefoil ventilation motifs, hinged lid, and decorative front clasp. Circa 1920 - 1950, possibly older.
This handcrafted piece displays rich aged patina with warm brass and copper undertones visible throughout the seams and edges. The folded metal construction, rolled hinge, hand-punched cutwork, and hand-finished details suggest older artisanal craftsmanship with Middle Eastern or Indian decorative arts influence.
One side bears a small hand-struck "63" mark, likely a workshop or assembly mark rather than a maker's hallmark.
Originally intended as a small incense or bakhoor burner, this piece now functions beautifully as a decorative object for layered global interiors, meditation spaces, or collected tabletop displays.
