{"product_id":"empire-urn-incense-burner-gilt-ormolu-scrolled-tripod","title":"Empire Urn Incense Burner with Gilt Ormolu Mounts \u0026 Scrolled Tripod Base","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Inspiration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlace this piece on a side table in a formal reception room and it immediately establishes a register of ceremony. The urn silhouette — a deep wine-red ceramic body rising from a narrow waist to a wide-lipped cup — is drawn from the classical krater form that European designers of the Empire period elevated into a defining motif of interior luxury. The perforated gilt lid allows fragrant smoke to curl upward in a controlled column, exactly as it would have in the private apartments of a Napoleonic-era palace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is cast in deep wine-glazed ceramic, its surface lightly ribbed to catch the light and give visual depth to the rich burgundy glaze. Against it, the polished brass ormolu mounts assert themselves with authority: a band of foliate scroll ornament encircles the neck, swaged garland drops hang from lion-mask ring handles, and paired acorn finials crown the lid and the four corner posts. The tripod base — three scrolled acanthus legs joined by a pierced foliate apron — lifts the piece off the surface and gives it the raised, altar-like presence that Empire designers intended. Each brass element is cast, chased, and finished by hand at our Cairo workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 4.0 kg. Dimensions: N\/A.
