The shape of this censer, based on that of the ancient bronze ritual food vessel, li, was produced from the Southern Song into the Yuan period for the domestic as well as the export market. The numerous tripod censers retrieved from the Sinan shipwreck (1323) provide evidence that this shape was much sought after in Japan, the original destination of the ship's cargo, and where they have since been widely collected.
