the flower receptacle cast in the form of a prunus tree, well-executed with large blossoms and birds, growing from a rock rising from churning waves, the base of the rock and waves pierced with holes to allow incense smoke to waft through, flanked by a warrior on a horse crossing a bridge and a boy on an ox, all supported on a separate stand that serves as the body of the censer (2)
