A Korean ceramic bowl supported on a short ring foot in the classic Buncheong (or Punch'ong) style from early Joseon Dynasty circa 15th century. The bowl features a beautiful dense composition of white slip decoration using stamping technique. With a molded chrysanthemum mandala in center, three concentric bands demarcated the interior surface. The spaces between are filled with three different sizes of the stamped chrysanthemums. In great geometrical repetition, the orderly design creates a harmony with the linear lines and makes a rather pleasant visual impact. The exterior was decorated with circular brushed on white slip. A transparent glaze was applied and with age, the bowl takes on a mellow greenish-brown glow.
The decoration was done profusely as the typical early Buncheong ware, but it was also effectively and orderly, with a strength in character.
For a similar bowl see "soo 334" in the collection of National Museum of Korea. Illustrated on page 119 of "Earth Fire Soul: The Masterpieces of Korean Ceramics".
Also, see item 176, 1916 in the collection of St Louis Art Musuem, St Louis, USA.
