Fine Korean Porcelain Jar with Chrysanthemum Design Joseon Dynasty
About the Item
A fine Korean white porcelain jar with underglaze blue painting circa second half of 19th century, Joseon Dynasty. Considered associated with Punwon-ri kilns in Gwangju, these types of globular jar with large mouth on a short near-straight neck were known as Tanji and used in the kitchen such as for pickling. The shape follows the function. Traditionally, they were made in three sizes with this jar being the medium size. The conforming foot ring and the slightly everted neck allow them to be stacked. The underglaze blue decoration tends to be rustic and folky.
The jar on offer is of fine quality. The underglaze blue is of a deep cobalt shade. The painting depicts branches of chrysanthemum flowers on two sides, a ribboned chime and pair of scrolls on the other two sides. These motifs are slightly less common than peonies for these types of jars used in the kitchen. The shoulder was decorated with the scrolling youi-head and the neck circumvented with lines. The base bears old numbers written in red paint.

- White Porcelain Moon Jar, Joseon Dynasty / 1392-1897Located in Kyoto-shi, KyotoThis is a white porcelain jar from the mid-Joseon period, also known as a "Talhunari" or "moon jar". During the Joseon Dynasty, which was strongly influenced by Confucianism, the purity of white porcelain was particularly prized in its artistic expression due to its Confucian sensitivity. The defining characteristic of white porcelain during this period was its pure white color, but there were many subtle variations in the white hues, with some being classified as milky white, snowy white, ashen white, and bluish white. The term "Talhunari" means "moon jar" in Korean, and it refers to the large, round shape of the jar, resembling a full moon. It was named by Kim Whanki, a representative abstract painter of Korea. The soft, curving lines and sturdy body that seems to embrace the full moon give the jar both power and tranquility. This type of jar was produced in large quantities during the 17th century. The white of the moon jar is not the pure white of early Joseon porcelain...Category
