An incense burner, also known as a censer, has a long history in China. As early as the Warring States period, the practice of burning incense had already emerged; by the Sui and Tang dynasties, the incense culture had grown even more flourishing. This Tang dynasty silver censer consists of three parts: a cover, a body and feet. The cover is semi-spherical in shape, carved with three layers of openwork cloud patterns, and riveted at the top with a lotus-bud-shaped finial with upturned petals. The body of the censer is adorned with a band of openwork honeysuckle-and-peach motifs, symbolizing longevity and health. The lower part of the body is dish-shaped, supported by five beast-hoof-shaped feet, which are connected by chains, allowing the censer either to stand on a flat surface or to be suspended. #CGTN中国艺术推广计划#特展入口：http://t.cn/AXx0IzQ8
