Very old Korean pottery bowl/15th century/“Hakeme” pottery bowl/Kintsugi

About the Item

This is a pottery made in the early Joseon Dynasty of Korea. This tea bowl was made around the 15th to 16th century. A characteristic of this era was that pure white pottery was only allowed to be used by the privileged class. Therefore, common people used pottery with other designs. And this item is exactly what the common people used for everyday use. This pottery is very popular in Japan, and many such bowls are imported and exist in Japan. In Japan, tea bowls made of ceramic with a white coating applied with a brush were called ``Hakeme tea bowls.'' Hakeme = “brush pattern” The manufacturing method is to take a tea bowl made of gray clay, apply a liquid made by dissolving white clay with water to a brush, and apply it vigorously onto the bowl. Finally, a transparent glaze is applied to complete the piece. This is a unique tea bowl seen during the Li Dynasty. Also, since a similar item was published in an art book, I have included a photo of it as a reference. And this appears to have been excavated. It is thought that it was reattached (kintsugi) and used as a tea bowl. Because the bowl has been used for a long time, there are stains here and there, which also makes it a very beautiful sight. If you just put a little water in it, it will leak out a little bit, so you can use it to put rice in it or use it as a sweets dish. Weight: 374g Also, I want many people to know the goodness of antiques, so I set the price reasonably. How about showing off to your friends around you?
