Comments:Published PDF date : Northern Song early 12thC Room 95 label text:PDF A44Incense burner with three cabriole legsThis unusually large incense burner evokes antiquity through both its shape and glaze. Potters modelled the cylindrical body, cabriole legs and carved horizontal line decoration after antique bronze or lacquer food containers called 奩 (lian), made in the Warring States and Han dynasty period (475 BC–AD 220). The colour of the incense burner’s crackled grey-blue-green glaze conjures up the appearance of ancient jades. In AD1151, General Zhang Jun 張浚, a favoured official of the Southern Song Emperor Gaozong 宋高宗 (ruled AD 1127–62), presented the emperor with sixteen Ru ware ceramics, including a large and small censer.
