Jade Frost — Song-Style Liuli Incense Box

Jade Frost Song-Style Liuli Incense Box

Cast glass caught between jade and honey — green pooling at the base, warming to amber where the light passes through. The lid is worked in 冰裂, the "ice-crack" lattice of Song porcelain, here held in 琉璃 (liuli), the coloured glass once counted among the old treasures.

A slender handle lifts the whole, small enough to sit in the palm. The pierced lid lets fragrance breathe.

Each casting carries its own veils and bubbles within the glass — the mark of the material, not a flaw. No two are alike.

Not included — incense, the slender stick, and styling pieces shown in photographs.

Liuli (cast glass). Handle gently; keep from knocks and sudden heat. Wipe with a soft dry cloth.
