celadon tripod censer-Chinese or Japan?

[fazli2810]

Recently acquired this Tripod Incense Burner .

Unsure of the age and not sure about the relief. My instincts point towards 17th C. Could be later though - would appreciate others opinions

thanks

How about the bottom, interior, plus underside of lid? Some additional pictures?

i think this is Yuan celadon censer

what do u think peter

[peterp]

This color is not celadon. And it is not Yuan. The fired clay (paste) is too fine for that. The completely glazed interior and lid means also that it is unlikely anything antique Chinese.
Whether it could be Japanese I cannot tell.

It is not an antique.

I THINK THE SHAPE IS FROM QIANLONG ERA

HERE THE SHAPE

A new shape cannot appear in an old era. But old shapes can appear in contemporary items.
The shape alone cannot be used for dating or authenticating an item...
