Antique Korean Ceramic White Glazed Bottle Vase Joseon Dynasty

About the Item

A Korean ceramic bottle vase circa 19th century late Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). The vase is of a classic bottle form with a bulbous body and a long neck with a slightly rolled mouth rum. The glaze is mostly white with a slight blueish tint, but in areas shows some splashes of darker embedded flecks as a result of kiln firing. The base was cut slightly unevenly (which causes the vase appears slightly titled on certain viewing angle as shown in the pictures) and shows residual sand crystalline. An old paper label underneath remain as shown that dates the vase to 18-19th century which we concur. The bottle is simple in form and devoid of decoration reflecting the aesthetic concept of restrained elegancy of Joseon Dynasty. It was made for actual use such as storing liquor, or perhaps holding flower offering on the altar etc., rather than pure display. It has a rustic charm typical of vernacular ceramic from late Joseon (Yi Dynasty) for domestic use.  For a similar bottle vase with white glaze, see Accession Number 2007.481 in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Object Number 86:1979 in the collection of Saint Louis Art Museum (last pic).

  • Korean Ceramic Faceted Wine Bottle Vase Joseon Dynasty
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    A Korean ceramic bottle with octagonal faceted form with underglaze copper red decoration. The robust bottle with the long neck and a relatively thick built was used to hold liquor such as wine and it was from Joseon dynasty, likely late period (circa mid-late 19th century). The bottle was covered in a milky white glaze with a pleasant warm yellow tint. It has an underglaze iron red paint of branches of gingko leaves on the front and the back side. The color was oxidated into an ochre brown hue instead of iron red. The octagonal form extends nicely from the opening to the base, continuing through the body and makes this bottle geometrically interesting. The rustic paint of the gingko leaves also render the piece a folky modern appeal. For three faceted wine bottles from different period of Joseon Dynasty, see illustration 2, 71 and 73 of "Five Centuries of Korean Ceramics Pottery and Porcelains of the Yi Dynasty...
