Posted By: Gary Knudtzon Wed, Nov 14, 2018 IP: 97.113.177.75

Would love to know ANYTHING about this Antique Beautiful Splashed Blue Glazed Chinese Pottery Foo Dog Incense Burner especially true age. Has remains of old Chinese Wax Seal (Export?) Seal. Food Dogs on Rim have Holes on the top of their Heads - what was the use for that? Thank You Very Much for your Help! Gary K

I am new to collecting Chinese objects, so am far from an expert. However, I can refer to you a site that gives more info on export seals and how old the objects that get this seal usually are (see link).

I am thinking that perhaps the holes are for putting a chain link through to suspend the pot.
