Pair of Korean Goryeo Dynasty Bronze Pedestal Bowls, 13th-15th Century, Korea
Located in Austin, TX
An exquisite pair of Korean bronze pedestal offering bowls, Goryeo Dynasty, 13th-15th century, Korea.

The bowls plain, save for a single engraved line circumscribing the splayed foot.

Crafted in two parts in the spun bronze technique, then joined. The bowls are unusually thin for bronze, with the lathe lines still visible to the undersides.
An unusual form and size for Goryeo period bronze utensils...
