Jingzhi Temple Pagoda: Incense Burner
Stoneware
陶五獸足薰爐
河北省保定市定州市靜志寺塔基地宮出土
一九六九年河北省保定市定州市靜志寺塔基地宮出土。薰爐高17.9公分，口徑10.6公分。爐蓋頂作寶瓶，瓶直口，溜肩，弧腹，由圓形托盤承托；頂下部為一倒置的曲腹盆，飾以仰蓮花瓣一周。瓶腹和蓋壁上鏤有數個桃形氣孔。
爐身呈圓筒形，飾數道弦紋，下有五足承托。足作獸面銜環的鋪首狀，並固定在一個玉環形底座上。不僅增加薰爐結構的穩定性，亦可提高器物在燒造時的抗變形。
唐代（618～907）三彩陶器及銅器已有同類形式，可見其繼承關係。此爐為白胎、白釉，胎體細膩堅致，釉面潔淨瑩潤，呈現北宋（960～1127）早期定瓷的高超成就。
