Chinese Dingyao Carved White Glazed Circular Censor. The elegant compressed globular body carved with concave horizontal bands, the side flanked by a pair of horned-animal masks issuing loop handles toward the foot, the rounded shoulder incised with a stylized scroll banding, covered overall with a rich ivory white glaze, the unglazed base revealing the buff white stone ware. {Length: 8 3/4 inches (22.2 cm)}. Property from a San Francisco Collection.
