Sang-de-Boeuf Tripod Censer Vase (Ding)

The Ding-shaped censer stands on three tapered legs, its bulbous body complemented by prominent, upward-curving handles and a wide, thick rim. The Sang-de-Boeuf glaze, known for its rich oxblood tones, covers the censer, with subtle gradations of color that lighten at the handles and feet. This piece reflects the enduring significance of the Ding form in Chinese ritual objects, combining traditional shape with a glaze application.
