The three-legged incense burner produced in the Ru kilns of the Song Dynasty in China, specifically from the Ruzhou area (now around Baofeng County, Henan Province). Ru ware is famous for its sky-blue glaze and jade-like elegance, and is one of the five great kilns of ancient China. The tripod incense burner, supported by three small legs, was used for burning incense and was a favorite tea art tool of scholars and literati in ancient times.

**Ru Porcelain Supporting Nail Craftsmanship**  

The Ru porcelain supporting nail craftsmanship refers to a special technique used in the firing process of ancient Chinese Ru kiln porcelain. This method involves using small nails (pieces of refractory material) to support the porcelain before firing. The purpose is to prevent the porcelain from coming into direct contact with the kiln floor during high-temperature firing, thus avoiding contamination or sticking. Ru porcelain is famous for its sky-blue glaze and delicate texture, and the supporting nail technique is one of the essential methods to ensure the quality of the porcelain during production.
