Neither the short foot nor the bottom of the vase is glazed – they show the pale buff clay underneath. You can see the traces of the potter’s fingers as the potting wheel was turned. The vase is stoutly potted with the pear-shaped body rising from the wedge-cut foot encircling the countersunk base and rising to the tall neck which is surmounted by the slightly ...click for details A Shiny Brown Glazed Globular Vase – Korean ? – 19th C. Catalogue: Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Korean: Ceramics: Pre 1920   item# 1033581 (stock# COLL 1081-A3)  click for details Ichiban Japanese and Oriental Antiques 203.272.7392 395.00  This is a handsome splotchy dark chocolate brown globe shaped vase with a wide opening and a white glaze on the inside. The base is also a white glaze. The brown glaze has some small adhered pieces of grit from the kiln on the sides and base. The vase measures 3 ¾’ high and is 4 ½” diameter at its widest. We date it to the mid to late 19th century and believe it to be of Korean origin, Choson (Joseon) dynasty.

The outer shell appears to be a dark brown bronze colored enamel or thick lacquer overlay. The coating then has a mother of pearl – aogi – inlaid scene. When you look inside the vase it is clear that the vase is bronze metal. However, on the base there are two chips on the rim that look like the underlay is ceramic. Our best guess is that the piece was first cast as a bronze vase - then a layer of ceramic was baked on that would hold the thick enamel coating. That wo ...click for details A Korean Choson (Joseon) Pottery Dish – 19th Century Catalogue: Antiques: Regional Art: Asian: Korean: Ceramics: Pre 1900   item# 696709 (stock# COLL1096-A13)  click for details Ichiban Japanese and Oriental Antiques 203.272.7392 $425.00  A thickly glazed pottery dish with an off white very thick glaze covering the entire top and bottom.
