Art Nouveau Style Patinated Owl Incense Burner

Hoot owl incense burner made in Japan in 1950s – 1960s.Highly detailed in an Art Nouveau style. Its feathers are detailed with ‘turkey tracks’. Its feet are a bit oversized with big claws. Its head turn in any direction. The smoke comes out through the holes in the wing, eyes and head. It’s a very unique styled owl with lots of allure.

Made of pantinated pot metal. Inside shows signs of burning incense. The old felt that covered its base has petrified a bit and shows lots of wear. Marked JAPAN on the inside ring of the head. Stands 3½” tall. In great condition with some signs of use on the interior. No damage to the metal or applied metal patination.
