A red glazed earthenware censer and baseLate Qing/Republic period
Possibly Shiwan ware, potted in traditional bombé form comprised of thin loop handles surmounting a waisted mouth rim atop a body of compressed ovoid section raised on three tapered feet, fitted into a separately potted floriform base; the thick viscous scarlet glaze covering the exterior surfaces of both pieces pooling unevenly around the edges of the feet (cracks, kiln flaws).
5 3/4 in (14.6cm) total height inclusive of base (2).
