Initially reserved for use in royal wares, the technique was eventually adopted for the production of ceramics intended for a wider but still elite clientele. Brush-painted decoration, like these floral motifs, added a fluid, calligraphic aesthetic to the porcelain that was distinct from the more repetitive <i>sanggam </i>ceramic inlay designs or engraved patterns that had been popular in Korea.  This bulbous jar, which lacks a spout for pouring, was most likely intended to hold wine.\n","remarks":"ASIA3_13-T6-A1_CLA  Day 1 Cataloguing"},{"texttype":"Online","textpurpose":"Provenance","textentryhtml":"J.
