White porcelain sake bottle from the Joseon dynasty (likely late period). The smooth white porcelain surface is adorned with a casually painted floral design in cobalt blue, which is very characteristic of the Joseon dynasty, and has a simple yet dignified presence. The line of the neck rising from the rounded body is a beautiful feature of this item. It was used as a flower vase, and the inside has been cleaned, but there is a possibility that it is not completely clean due to the narrow mouth. Please consider this if you are okay with that. Size: Height approx. 17.5 cm Mouth diameter (outside) approx. 5 cm Thank you for viewing! There are fine scratches and stains due to aging, and minor imperfections (black spots) from firing, but there are no major chips or noticeable cracks. The traces of scraping and sand adhering near the base also give a sense of the powerful style unique to the Joseon dynasty. As shown in photos 3-4, there are pinholes characteristic of the Joseon dynasty, as well as small irregularities and glaze peeling that occurred during production and firing. These are not later damage, but are accepted in the antique world as kiln marks (scenery) from the time. The texture of the thick glaze and the texture of the white porcelain that has changed over time are exquisite, and it is a very "well-developed" piece. (AI's opinion) As this is an old item, please purchase it if you understand antiques and antique items, and if you are satisfied after carefully checking the condition in the photos. It will be wrapped in bubble wrap and shipped.
