A Qingbai tripod incense burner, Song Dynasty. Photo Bonhams.

Potted with a slightly compressed globular body below a flat mouth rim, the exterior with three relief-moulded vertical flanges, covered overall in an attractive thin pale blue glaze, pierced metal cover. 8.8cm wide. (2). Estimate HK$ 30,000 - 50,000 (€2,800 - 4,700). Unsold

A larger similarly glazed Qingbai tripod incense burner, more ornately decorated with animal mask issuing legs and bands of archaistic designs, dated to Southern Song/Yuan dynasty, was sold at Christie's New York, 21 September 2004, lot 226. The present lot's shape is more frequently seen on Longquan incense burners of the Song period, for instance one previously in the collection of H. J. Oppenheim, currently in the British Museum, London, illustrated by The Oriental Ceramic Soceity, The Ceramic Art of China, London, 1972, plate 75, no.110.
