This minimalist work in Korean Buncheong Ware has a beautifully balanced silhouette and generously rounded form.
The smooth off-white slip thickly coats this small Moon Jar. It results in a mostly opaque layer on the vessel, topped with a clear glaze that has a slight gloss.
The slip thins out at the lip, giving a glimpse of the darker clay beneath. The dark clay is also exposed on the underside of the foot.

The distinctive texture of Buncheong Ware is uniquely Korean in origin. A dark clay body is covered by a layer of liquid white clay, known as the 'slip'. The slip may be applied by brush, by pouring over or by dipping the vessel, and the drips and brush marks show in the final work; this is the unique charm of Buncheong Ware.
