AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique Chinese porcelain censer with incense burner (Tripod Censer) or a brush washer from the late Qing Dynasty (19th / early 20th century).

The vessel rests traditionally on three short, globular feet and is striking for its bright, deep blue monochrome glaze on the exterior, in the trade known as 'Jilan' (Sacrificial Blue).

The glassy cobalt tone forms a beautiful contrast to the light, slightly speckled white inside the vessel.

On the base, the concentric turning and carving marks of the potter's wheel are perfectly visible.

Dimensions:
Height: 8 cm / Diameter: 15 cm (top) 16.5 cm (middle).

Condition:
Very good antique condition, no chips or hairline cracks. The glaze shows some age-related, light scratches (visible only in strong light). On the underside there is a small, manufacturing-related glaze crack in the center, which is superficial, absolutely stable and harmless (see detail photos).

The censer will be shipped securely packed and insured with tracking."} } )?Oops, ensure valid JSON. The previous includes stray characters at end. Final: ensure it's exactly one object. Remove extra. Let's provide clean.
