Tea bowl decorated with chrysanthemums and wavy lines
Not on view
The white slip, stamp technique, and chrysanthemum motif of this tea bowl echo the decoration of fifteenth-century buncheong ware, such as the adjacent vessel. Yet this cylindrical bowl was made specifically for the Japanese market, probably in the early seventeenth century. It is also possible that it was a product of the so-called Busan kilns (active 1639–1718) in southeastern Korea, which manufactured and exported revivalist Korean-style ceramics that catered to the tastes of Japanese consumers.
