Ornate Blue Cabochon Brass Egg Burner Traditional Carved Wood Base

This ornate incense burner features an ovoid metal vessel completely covered in a geometric pattern of blue circular enamel or glass cabochons set within individual brass bezels, creating a striking honeycomb-like surface decoration. The vessel opens at the center seam to reveal smooth, polished brass interiors with scalloped rim details on both halves. The piece sits securely on a purpose-made carved wooden stand with fitted rings and a hollow interior chamber designed to support the burning function. The metalwork demonstrates skilled craftsmanship with hundreds of precisely set blue decorative elements against the golden brass base metal. The wooden stand shows traditional dark patina and expert carving to complement the ornate metal vessel above.

Early to mid-20th century, Asian decorative arts tradition featuring cloisonné-style enamel work typical of Chinese or Japanese ceremonial objects.
