DescriptionCenser is a rounded bowl with a flat turned out rim, resting on three triangular animal mask feet. The exterior is decorated with three incised parallel rings near the rim and then succeeding bands of small repeated upright lines (dental pattern) down to the base. Glaze is a light green translucent celadon that falls short of the centre well and the base. Unglazed portions of the base and well are orange from the kiln firing.
