A pale green jade incense set features three relief-carved vessels. To the left, a slender vase is topped by a crouching animal. The central tripod burner displays dragon-head handles with suspended rings and a domed lid. To the right, a small, rounded box has a lid carved with intricate motifs. Each translucent piece is embellished with stylized masks and scrolling patterns, demonstrating the smooth, polished finish of the stone.
