This bronze incense burner is situated in Pyochung Temple in Miryang, South Gyeongsang.
It gauges 27.5 centimeters (10.8 inches) in stature and the distance across of its spout measures 26.1 centimeters.
It is an exceptionally refined work enriched with the silver string that is trimmed in the examples engraved at first glance.
The incense burner comprises a body with a wide overflow and a trumpet-formed stand, which demonstrates the commonplace style of the Goryeo Period (918-1392). The part interfacing the overflow and body is ended and the edge around it gives a feeling of soundness. The extent of its width and stature is just about 1 to 1, which demonstrates a decent adjust. In the upper side of the overflow, there are six circles at customary interim.
Inside these circles, the letter beam (birthplace of world creation) is embellished with silver string ready and mists are engraved between them. A cloud and mythical beast outline embellishes the stand and show the Goryeo Period's propelled strategy of silver string trims. There are 57 letters with silver string trims within the overflow, which intimated that it was created in 1177, amid the rule of King Myeongjong.
It is the most seasoned incense burner that exists in Korea today and has a critical significance as a relic whose time period is known for certain. By content composed inside the stand, this incense burner was initially found not in the present Pyochungsa Temple but rather in Yongheungsa Temple in Changnyeong. In any case, it is not clear how it was migrated.
