Blue and white censer with flowers, willow and grasses and anhua borders, Transitional period, China, c1640. A blue and white incense burner of circular slightly bulging form in the lower half, the rim slightly out curving, a border band of scrolling flowers between line borders in anhua technique typical of the period under the rim, a plain incised anhua band round the base. The main panel is decorated by two groups; one of daisies and v-tick grasses drawn up from the base anhua border, the other of two sprays of prunus and willow fronds going down from the upper anhua border. The decoration all appears under a duck egg white glaze; the base is glazed.
