About this artwork
Seifū Yohei III made incense burners in a wide variety of designs and styles. Their silver lids were produced outside the studio by metalwork specialists. This tripod incense burner has a distinctive red-colored glaze and linear molded decorations that run around the base of the collar and down the legs.
