This Moon Jar is a minimalist work in Buncheong Ware, using the technique called Deom-beong, in which the vessel is dipped into the slip, or top layer of liquid white clay.

The colour is creamy off-white, with warm rust undertones. The surface is subtly textured and in small areas the dark clay is visible, either partially veiled or exposed.

Buncheong Ware, with its distinctive texture, is uniquely Korean in origin.  A top layer of light-coloured clay (the 'slip') veils the darker clay below.  Drips and brush strokes made at the moment the slip is applied remain in the final work;  this is the unique charm of the art form.
