- Lot Description
East Asia, Korea, Joseon dynasty, ca. 16th to 17th century CE. A delightful wheel-thrown buncheong (stoneware) vase with a ring base, a piriform body, and a tall slender neck with a slightly flared rim. The surface is glazed with celadon, producing a lustrous cool light grey-green hue with a crazing (crackling) effect. Celadon glaze could range from transparent to white, yellow, green, to cobalt colored, depending on its composition and firing process. While celadon was used to intentionally create any of these colors, green was often the ideal hue because of the similarity to the color of jade, which was highly symbolic. The crackling was initially accidental but became desirable because the random spiderweb patterns added interesting visual affects to the surface. Joseon artisans believed that all pottery had unique personalities, and this lovely vase exudes a simplistic elegance. Size: 4.93" W x 8.5" H (12.5 cm x 21.6 cm)
Ceramic wares from the Joseon Dynasty came to signify the cultural achievements of the artisans from the Korean peninsula. The invasion of Japan in 1592 resulted in many Korean master potters being forcibly relocated to Japan, disrupting the production of Korean pottery and resulting in a shift of pottery styles as the younger generation rediscovered the techniques their predecessors had used. In the 1930s the name "bunjang hoecheong sagi" was used by Korean art historian, Go Yuseop to describe the ceramics, such as this vase, which were decorated with celadon glaze and the name translates to "gray-green ceramics decorated with powder."
