About the Item
A Korean porcelain brush holder in cylinder log form from the end of Joseon dynasty circa late 19th century. Cherished by the scholars, brush pot like this would grace the desk in the man's study and used to hold the collection of the brush pens. Covered in a milky white glaze, the opposite facade of this brushpot is decorated with two large cutout symbols of Buddhism Swastika framed within a roundel. The reticulated motif was an ancient emblem found in many cultures. In Asia, it was long associated with Buddha and his noble path. The motif is further alternated with a latticed leaf design with pomegranate with seeds. The fruit is the symbol of abundance in Korean culture/ The rendering of the incised design is lovely in their details, striking a harmonious composition. Around the mouth and the base, a thinner rope-design ring was placed above the wider band. The short foot ring was unglazed, showing the red fired clay with some kiln grits. It comes with a later tomobako storage box.
From a Japanese collection.
For another brush holder decorated with reticulated swastika, see lot 372 of Bonham's sale 10 May 2022, London, Knightsbridge.
For a swastika-decorated Dambaetdae (pipe rest), see V&A collection, C.343 dash 1912.
