Korean Reticulated Celadon Brush Holder Joseon Dynasty
About the Item
A Korean porcelain brush holder in hexagon form from the end of Joseon dynasty circa late 19th century. Cherished by the scholars, brushpot like this would grace the desk in the man's study. Covered in an overall bluish celadon glaze, each of the six facets of this brushpot is centered by a roundel outlined with incision lines with a cutout symbol of Buddhism Swastika in the center. The reticulated motif was an ancient emblem found in many cultures. In Asia, it was long associated with Buddha and his noble path. Above and below the roundels, there are incised design of butterflies and branches of plum blossom. Iron red was used to highlight the wings of the butterflies and the petals of the blooms. One side, however, the highlight was much less pronounced, as if the potter was running out of the red glaze. The execution appears hasty and casual. This, combined with the slightly irregular form of the body, render the piece a rustic and folky aesthetic. The short foot ring is slightly recessed from the body. It was unglazed, showing the red fired clay with some kiln grits.
For another brush holder decorated with reticulated swastika, see lot 372 of Bonham's sale 10 May 2022, London, Knightsbridge.
For a swastika-decorated Dambaetdae (pipe rest), see V&A collection, C.343 dash 1912.
