Large Antique White Glazed Bottle Vase Korean Ceramic Joseon Dynasty

$ 4,000
  • Description
    On offer is a Korean ceramic bottle vase circa 19th century made in the late Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). The vase is of a classic bottle form with a bulbous body and a long neck with a slightly rolled mouth rum. The all over glaze is white with a slight blueish tint. Minimal in form and devoid of any decoration, the vase perfectly reflects the humble aesthetic of restrained elegancy during Joseon Dynasty, when the Confucianism predominated the ideology. It was made for actual use such as storing liquor, or perhaps holding flowers, rather than pure display for attention. It has a rustic charm typical of vernacular ceramic from late Joseon (Yi Dynasty), greatly appreciated by the scholars and literati at the time.
    For a similar bottle vase with white glaze, see Accession Number 2007.481 in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Object Number 86:1979 in the collection of Saint Louis Art Museum.
