Korean Guiyal Buncheong Moon jar, H 4.75"

Meet the Korean Guiyal Buncheong Moon jar, wheel-thrown by ceramist Seungi Min based in Icheon, South Korea. This glazed moon jar is a statement piece, brushed with white clay, which is one of the characteristic decorative feature of buncheong ware called "귀얄기법" ("guiyal" technique). On the lower bottom of the body is potter's mark 閔 (Min). Dimensions: opening ⌀ 2"; mid circumference 13"; H 4.75'' Glazed ceramic. Lead-free. Wheel-thrown in Icheon, South Korea. About Seungki Min: Seungki Min is a contemporary Korean ceramic artist known for his refined wheel-thrown pottery that draws deeply from Korea’s celebrated ceramic traditions, especially Buncheongand moon jar forms while also adapting them for a modern audience. Min's ceramics sit at an interesting intersection: they honor historical Korean clay traditions, yet don't replicate them slavishly. By experimenting with colored slip, layered glazes and minimal form, Min pushes the material language of Buncheong and Celadon into new territory. His pieces speak to both past and present: humble, meditative, and thoughtfully expressive.
