拍品描述
A LARGE PEACH-FORM PORCELAIN WATER DROPPER, JOSEON DYNASTY

Korea, 18th-19th century. Finely modeled resting on the stem of the fruit, issuing three branches and two underglaze-blue leaves neatly incised with diagonal veins, the pointed tip and stylized blossoms in copper-red, the stems and foot of a distinct iron-rust color, and the body covered by a transparent glaze with a pale blue hue.

Provenance: From the private collection of Lennart Hast, and thence by descent in the same family. Lennart Hast (1910?1999) was the deputy head of the Swedish Red Cross Hospital and stationed in Busan, South Korea, at the end of the Korean War in 1953. He was known as a keen collector of Korean art, mostly ceramics and bronze sculptures, who donated many pieces to museums in Sweden and other European countries.
Condition: Very good condition with expected old wear, some traces of use, and firing flaws including kiln grit and glaze recesses to the base.

Weight: 597.8 g
Dimensions: Height 12.3 cm

In Korea, water droppers took many imaginative forms and their decoration often included auspicious emblems of Chinese origin, such as peaches, which represent longevity.
