Vaso luna

second half 18th century
Not on view
Fabbricato con un tipo particolare di ceramica bianca della tarda epoca Choson (1392-1910), il vaso luna (dalhangari), così chiamato per la sua forma suggestiva, di solito veniva eseguito unendo due semisfere di argilla. La giuntura spesso è visibile e la forma complessiva ha un aspetto organico. Le decorazioni color pesca sullo smalto del pezzo, involontariamente ottenute durante la cottura, lo rendono ancor più interessante. Sebbene nel XVIII secolo gli oggetti di porcellana avessero ormai una grande diffusione a livello mondiale, vasi di questo tipo sono una peculiarità della Corea.
