Sancai is a representative work of ceramics during the Tang Dynasty. Its magnificent glaze and unique style had been sought after by officials and aristocrats at that time. This censer in bell form is potted with a globular body rising from a round foot to a circular rim, fashioned with rectangular openings on the shoulder. The exterior is applied overall with a sancai glaze mainly of a yellowish green tone save for the round foot, revealing the white body. Such a glaze with various but harmonious colors resembling watercolor paintings makes the censer a worthy collection of Sancai ceramics.
