Buncheong Round Box

This simple round box has faint rust-coloured traces in the off-white slip, or top layer of clay. 

The subtle variation in thickness of the slip gives this minimalist piece a lovely random texture that conveys the spontaneous spirit of the Buncheong Ware art form.

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.
