Late Wanli - Ming - blue and white tri-pod bombe' form censer. Pencil painted to the outside with scrolling peonies and foliage and around the neck and rim a geometric hatched pattern.
The three short legs are part of the body and unusually the pattern descends around and down them.
Excellent size and colour.
The shape and design makes the piece very stable on all surfaces. It would have been used on a family alter where it was filled with sand and 'jos sticks' placed into them.
