拍品描述

英文品名：A GILT-SPLASHED BRONZE TRIPOD CENSER WITH BRIDGE EARS, BEARING A "DA MING XUANDE NIANZHI" MARK 尺寸：D:12.5cm;H:8cm 銅質，沖天耳三足爐。爐身碩腹，口沿上立雙耳，耳端微撇，下承三乳足。器表以熟褐銅為地，其上點灑金片，金斑大小不一、疏密相間，狀如落雪，是為灑金。爐底鑄方形“大明宣德年製”陽文篆書款。銅質精練，包漿瑩潤，爐身線條圓勁。宣德爐素以精銅、圓線著稱。此器碩腹三乳足，口沿橋耳直立，宜於几上焚香；熟褐銅地點灑金片，疏密落雪，華而不奢。文人焚香講求爐暖、香細、火緩，於此圓潤爐中焚沉檀，香氣自口徐出，與品茶、插花、掛畫並為書齋雅事。 This bronze incense burner has a compressed globular body rising to a pair of upright, slightly flared bridge handles, supported on three teat feet. Against the dark, seasoned brown ground, irregular flakes of gold are scattered across the surface in varying sizes, the gilt-splashed finish. The base is cast with a raised square six-character seal-script mark, Da Ming Xuande nianzhi. Finely cast with a mellow patina and rounded, balanced lines. Xuande-type censers are famed for their refined copper and rounded lines. Here the full body on three teat feet and the upright bridge ears suit table incense; seasoned brown ground is splashed with gold flakes, sparse and dense like falling snow, rich yet restrained. Scholar incense seeks a warm burner, fine incense and a slow fire; in this rounded vessel aloeswood and sandalwood smoulder, fragrance rising slowly from the mouth, ranking with tea, flowers and scrolls among studio pursuits.
