About this piece
Three stubby feet and a wall as smooth as river silt.
Chinese stone carvers made this censer form vessel in marble, with a date given in the record as the 19th century or earlier. Vessels of this shape are commonly associated with burning incense or holding offerings. It is a squat cylinder with a plain wall, a thick lip and three short rounded feet. The marble is a warm cream, softly veined with gray, and the surface is smooth and slightly waxy with a few small dark spots.
About 5 inches tall and 8 across. Excellent for incense, or a single strong opinion.
