Antique, Unique, Rare Bronze Japanese Incense Burner With Tokugawa Family Crest- Commissioned Work

12-1/2" Tall
5-1/2" wide (base and upper curved arms)
Lovely bronze incense burner. The excellent craftsmanship is typical of the era. Need a few "S" hooks to be complete. These are hard to find, and this one is OLD. Read below about the family whose crest is on this piece. These were usually commissioned pieces.

The Tokugawa clan is a Japanese dynasty that was formerly a powerful daimyō family. They nominally descended from Emperor Seiwa and were a branch of the Minamoto clan through the Matsudaira clan. The early history of this clan remains a mystery. Members of the clan ruled Japan as shōguns from 1603 to 1867.
