Title: celadon tripod censer-Chinese or Japan?
Post by: fazli2810 on Jun 01, 2014, 21:03:06
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

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.

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...
