About the Item

A sublime Korean bronze ritual basin with incredible patina, Goryeo Dynasty (918 to 1392 AD), 12th - 14th century, Korea. The Goryeo bronze basin of shallow bowl form, set on a short and wide ring foot, with straight walls, an everted mouth, and rolled edge rim. The basin plain, save for a pair of simple lines that circumscribe the mid-section of the basin, typical of Goryeo bronze decoration. The bronze with a gorgeous and complex overall patina of textured green malachite over red cuprite. The basin has an almost austere feel to it, with its simple decoration, elegant proportions, and incredible patina. Most likely used in a ritual setting, this bowl would originally have been used to hold water, and may have been used in washing or purification ceremonies. Goryeo bronze vessels are prized for their simple, yet elegant forms that often develop stunning and complex patinas from burial. Major institutions around the world hold collections of Goryeo bronzes. Provenance: Bonhams, Los Angeles Frank S. Bailey III (1939 - 2022), San Francisco and Seattle Crane Gallery, Seattle, 1996

Located in Austin, TX

An exquisite pair of Korean bronze pedestal offering bowls, Goryeo Dynasty, 13th-15th century, Korea. The Goryeo bronze bowls of generous proportions, with high sides and an ever so slightly everted rim. The bowls are supported on a pedestal base with a tall stem and wide, splayed ring foot. The bowls plain, save for a single engraved line circumscribing the splayed foot.
