Vintage Korean Porcelain Celadon Glaze Signed Bottle Vase Clouds & Cranes 6.2cm

Hira-chawan made of Seiji (celadon glazed porcelain)

with Unkaku (clouds and cranes)

signed by Koren potter 

In excellent condition.

There is craquelure to the celadon glaze. The colour is similar to jade stone and a very delicate green. 
 The pottery itself has an uneven composition. The piece has an antique feel to it but we cannot certify its age as it is not a subject we specialize in. 

No chips cracks or restoration. 



 Underneath the gorgeous celadon glaze, is an inlay pattern of clouds and cranes, known as unkaku (雲鶴) in Japanese. 

As the techniques of celadon production reached Korea during the Goryeo dynasty, it took on its own distinct style known in Japanese as Zōganseiji (象嵌青磁 - Inlaid Celadon). At its peak in the 12th century, Goryeo celadon was prized for its jade colour, elegant shapes, and intricate inlay patterns featuring cranes, flowers, and dragons. As the Goryeo dynasty withered, so did celadon’s quality and popularity, until production eventually ceased in the early Joseon dynasty. Only in the 20th century was this style revived.
