label: Description
content: Globular lidded vase in the form of an incense burner, with billowing smoke coming out of the top. The vase has a swirling acanthus leaf pattern around the body, as well as garlands crisscrossing in the front. There are ram head ornaments on either side of the vase with rings of garland in their mouths. The vase is a tripod, supported by three goat legs bound with a band of garland. The vase is elevated on a stepped platform that extends to the edge of the image. The plate is signed and numbered.
