An Ancient, or Antique, Korean Brown-Glazed Ceramic Vase, A 100% Guaranteed Authentic Piece made nearly 1,000 Years Ago during the Namesake Goryeo (aka Koryo, Koryeo) Dynasty of Modern-Day Korea (As the Goryeo was the first major Imperial Dynasty to rule over roughly the same area as defined by the modern boundaries of the Korean Peninsula from 918- 1392 CE.

A Rare and large glazed work of in the Classic Style of Goryeo Dynasty Stoneware Ceramics, undoubtedly authentic to the period period, which was noted for its fine Celadon and other High Temperature Kiln-Fired Ceramics, using new and innovative artistic techniques many of which were inspired by (but then also expanded upon making a style of Ceramics that was uniquely Korean) their contemporary Chinese neighbors of the Song Dynasty where the first fine Celadon Porcelain Wares were made that were then and still continue to be some of the most valued Ceramics of all time. Like Song Dynasty China, under Goryeo rule Korean Arts & Culture flourished, bringing about great innovations in the arts, particularly in the field of glazed ceramics as shown in extant vessels such as the beautiful and expertly produced example offered herein, which not only had a major, long-lasting impact on fine and decorative arts around the world which continues to influence artists to this day, but were also so finely constructed that we are lucky enough to have pieces like this vase still extant today allowing us to marvel at their beauty, see, and even own them ourselves, just as they would have looked when first made a thousand years ago and thousands of miles away!

Height: 11.5 inches

Condition: A large crack on one side was professionally repaired, leaving no issues regarding structural integrity today. The old fracture luckily did not chip or shatter and part of the vase so that it was able to be repaired without any false or missing pieces, and as such the piece is complete and appears perfectly shaped as intended; only the outline of the repaired crack is visible when inspected at close distance (at a distance of more than about 1 foot the piece appears as if there was never any damage or repair). Additionally, the repaired crack is only present on one side of the vase, leaving a "display side" available which is stunning and blemish-free. We have generously over-adjusted the list price of this Vase, reducing the price far more than what would be typical of the market in respect to the repair, allowing us to offer you this One-Of-A-Kind Ancient Korean Ceramic at a truly unbeatable price far below that of any other comparable authentic Goryeo Ceramic-Ware, particularly of this stately size, on the market today anywhere!

Provenance: Formerly of the Hashimoto Estate, A Well-Respected and Massive Private Collection, Comprised of Several Thousand Authentic Ancient to Contemporary Works of East Asian Artwork.
