Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bowl,

Korea, Koryo dynasty, 1150-1200
Glazed stoneware with impressed and inlaid decoration.

The bowl is covered with a celadon glaze. The exterior is plain while the interior has moulded and inlaid decoration of a lotus blossom in the well, three moulded boys amongst lotus flowers on the sides, and an inlaid arabesque border near the rim. The foot ring is glazed and has three spur marks.
The earliest Korean celadons with inlaid decoration are associated with a tomb of 1150, and so a late 12th century date is suggested for this elegant pale green bowl.
