Korean white Porcelain Ritual Incense Burner with Bagua Pattern Joseon Dynasty
About the Item
An antique Korean ritual incense burner circa 19th century, late Joseon dynasty. It was made in Bunwon Kiln in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Do, near Seoul. The ceramic container has a thickly body with white glaze with a tint of blue. It is of an archaic Chinese form with rounded base and two ears. Interestingly, the cover features groups of pierced trigrams in the shapes of four of the eight Bagua (Palgwae in Korean) symbols: Kan, Li, Dui and Zhen. Incense burner like this has a strong religious significance and was believed to be used on the altar table in the Buddhist temple for worshiping.

Korean White Ceramic Stem Dish Joseon Dynasty
Located in Atlanta, GA
A ceramic dish with high cylindrical foot in white glaze from Korea, circa 19th century Joseon Dynasty. By shape, this piece is most likely a ceremonial vessel that was used to make offerings on the altar. Although without inscription, we can't rule out that it could be a household item for occasions that were less formal. Such as a private shrine in the household. During Joseon dynasty, the social morals were largely centered on the principles of Confucianism that originated from China. Many ritual ceramic wares were produced for rituals and worships on all level of the society. The ware were often modeled after the archaic bronze ware that elevated them from the aesthetic of daily use pieces. High foot dish like this were made in both round and square shape to suite different use but they were all distinguished with the inscription for their exclusive ceremonial purpose.
Of elegant form and harmonious proportion, this stem dish...
