Ge Kiln Incense Burner with Fish-shaped Ears

Since ancient Chinese were fond of incense, they would prepare incense burners at their home. The cultural relic we are going to introduce today is a masterpiece from Ge Kiln.

Ge Kiln is one of the five most famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. Its porcelain products are noted for the fine networks of cracks on the surface. 

This incense burner measures eight centimeters in height, 12.5 centimeters in mouth diameter, and 9.2 centimeters in foot diameter.
