About the Item

A Korean porcelain brush holder in cylinder log form from the end of Joseon dynasty to Korean Empire circa late 19th century to early 20th century. Cherished by the scholars, brush pot like this would grace the desk in the man's study and used to hold the collection of the brush pens. Covered in a milky celadon glaze, the design of this brushpot is composed of stacked rings. The simple and repetitive motif renders a highly geometrical visual. This piece was possibly made in Bunwon Kiln, a royal kiln established in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-Do province. It was one of the largest kilns that produced many scholar items. From a Japanese collection and it comes with a COA issued by a Japanese Auction house and gallery. For another brush holder with similar reticulated ring decoration, see f1991.83 in the National Musuem of Asian Art (Freer and Sackler) in Washington, DC. Illustrated on page 179 in the book "Korean Art in the Freer and Sakler Galleries".
