The image shows two ancient Chinese artifacts made of jade. The larger item is a ceremonial vessel or incense burner, with a round bowl-shaped body supported by four carved animal legs. The vessel has an intricate floral and dragon motif carved into the green jade surface. Next to it is a smaller jade item, which appears to be a container or box with a figure of a mythical animal, possibly a lion or dragon, carved on the lid. Both objects have a rich, deep green coloration characteristic of high-quality jade. These appear to be valuable and well-crafted examples of traditional Chinese jade craftsmanship and ceremonial objects.

This image shows a beautiful jade censer (incense burner) with its lid, crafted in traditional Chinese style. The piece appears to be made from translucent green jade, with a light to medium green color typical of high-quality jade. The main body of the censer is a bowl-shaped vessel supported by three feet, with decorative dragon-head handles on the sides. The separate lid features what appears to be a foo dog or lion figure as its finial. The craftsmanship demonstrates fine carving work, particularly in the detailed handles and the sculptural elements. The surface has a smooth, polished finish characteristic of fine jade work. This type of vessel would have been used in traditional Chinese ceremonies or as a prestigious decorative piece, likely dating from the Qing Dynasty period based on its style and execution.
