Korean antique pottery bowl/15th-16th century/Joseon Dynasty

About the Item

This is a piece of pottery made during the early Joseon Dynasty of the Yi Dynasty in South Korea. This tea bowl, which was made around the 15th century, was used by common people and was made as a practical item. In an era when white porcelain was only allowed to be used by the upper class and privileged people, this slightly grayish tea bowl was a tool that supported the people. To make it, use gray-blue clay, apply cloudy mud to a brush, and apply it onto the bowl to create a pattern. In the case of this bowl, there is a white band-like pattern on the inside, but that is after applying this paint. This paint is often applied over the entire vessel, but this vessel has a subtle design. After that, a transparent glaze is applied to the entire piece, and when it is fired, it becomes a vessel like this. The bottom part is slightly indented by a spatula, which is a characteristic feature of 15th century vessels. Also, since a similar item was published in an art book, I have included a photo of it as a reference. The balance of the vessel is beautiful. Although it is an excavated item, there are no noticeable scratches and it is in good condition overall. The transparent glaze has peeled off slightly around the edges due to aging, but it's not noticeable. Items in good condition are rare. Can be used for soup plates, sweets plates, etc. This is a recommended item. Weight: 449g
