Compare a Longquan celadon drum-shaped tripod washer, also raised on mask-shaped feet, in the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Porcelain of the Song Dynasty (II), Hong Kong, 1996, pl.129. See also a Longquan celadon tripod censer of drum-form, Song/Yuan dynasty, which was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 26 November 2014, lot 2905.
香爐整體器形似大鼓，以鼓起的腹部為中心上下對稱，口沿和腹底近足處皆有鼓釘紋一周，扁圓的腹體刻有花卉紋，古色古香。腹下等距置三獸足，表面同樣以鼓釘作飾，腹底與足端無釉露出胎底。通體施青釉，著釉柔潤，有元代龍泉青瓷的特徵。見北京故宮博物院藏一件龍泉窯鼓釘三足洗，造型裝飾皆可資參考，收錄於《故宮博物院藏文物珍品大系：兩宋瓷器（下）》，香港，1996年，圖版129。另見香港佳士得2014年11月26日售一宋或元龍泉窯青釉鼓釘三足香爐，拍品2905。
