    Hello All.. Here to hopefully pick your collective brains.. We picked this up in a box of various pieces. Believe it to be bronze Incense Burner (but we may be wrong). It has a dragon on each handle. They are unusual in that they look as if they have a trunk for a nose. Also the dragons have 5 toes, and the base of the item has 3 x five toed feet. Very fine filigree work with Dragons depicted to the sides. No makers marks at all. Is it Chinese? Is it a Incense Burner? Any idea of age? It measures approx 12" tall and 10" wide (dragon to dragon. It weighs 1.5Kg. Any and all help appreciated as always.
