About the Item

This is a very old cup-shaped earthenware from Korea. It was made in a country called "Kaya" located at the southern tip of the Korean peninsula. This is fired at a kiln temperature of over 1,000 degrees, and because it is fired at a high temperature, the vessel walls are thin but hard like porcelain. This technique was also introduced to Japan, where this type of gray earthenware is called "sueki." The common theory is that "sue" means "iron" in Korean, so it means "earthenware as hard as iron." When it was made before this, the firing temperature was low, so liquids would leak if they were poured into it, but this type of hard earthenware does not leak even if liquids are poured into it. This earthenware was made around the 4th to 5th century and was excavated. It is thought to have been brought back by Japanese people when they went to the Korean peninsula. This earthenware is cup-shaped with a round, string-like band attached to it, giving it the shape of a cup. Even today, it has a modern design. A distinctive feature of this piece is the lines on the surface. Similar lines can be seen on other forms of pottery. There is also an arrow-like mark in one place, and such unique markings can also be engraved on pottery. (Also, a similar piece was featured in an art book, so I have included a photo of it as a reference.) This is a fascinating piece of pottery. And in the photo, there is a red circle, which is a repaired area. The bottom part is thought to be a part that was chipped and re-glued. It can be used as a flower vase, but if you put water in it and leave it for half a day, the repaired part at the bottom will start to seep in, so avoid leaving water in it for long periods of time. It also has an earthen smell, so it cannot be used directly as a drinking cup. It has a worn-out texture that exudes a sense of wabi-sabi, and also has modern design elements. It is a fascinating item that exudes a sense of eternal history. It is also stored in a special wooden box. It is a rare item that is hard to come by. 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?

Antique Korean Mishma Tea Bowl Chawan Joseon Dynasty

Located in Atlanta, GA

A Korean Hori-Mishima Chawan (tea bowl) circa 16th-17th century (Joseon Dynasty). The tea bowl is of an upright conical form supported by a high foot ring. It was decorated with incised brushwood fence patterns filled with white slip on both the interior and exterior surface. These dominant motifs were spaced by three encircling double lines. Seven chrysanthemum flowers (inka) were stamped on the lower interior surrounding a swirling tea well on the bottom. There are six spur marks known as Meato in Japanese on the interior bottom and a pointy spot in the center of the foot ring known as Tokin. Two crack lines were historically repaired by superb Kintsugi, adding a mysterious wabi-sabi appeal to the piece. The Hori-Mishima bowl was also known as Gohon Mishima. It was made in Bushan Kilns of the Southern Gyeongsang Province specifically for the Japanese market in the 16th-17th century, when the tea ceremonies in Japan demanded such ware. The bowl comes with a purple fabric pouch...
