This shape, inspired by ancient bronze li, was produced during the Southern Song through the Yuan period for the domestic as well as the export market. The numerous examples of Longquan tripod censers retrieved from the Sinan shipwreck 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.
A number of Longquan celadon censers of same shape are published, including several in renowned museum collections. Examples in the Tokyo National Museum and Percival David Foundation, London, are published in Oriental Ceramics, The World's Great Collections, Kodansha series, Tokyo, 1982, vol. 1, no. 97, and vol. 6, no. 37, respectively.

Ayers, in the Catalogue, vol. I. Geneva, 1972, no.
