I enjoy antiques and vintage items, knowing they have a history. I love decorating my own space with these items as well as passing them on to others who have the same passion in older items. Come browse my shop and enjoy!
This is a Korean celadon lidded box (often used as a cosmetic, ink, or paste/incense box) featuring traditional slip-inlaid floral or decorative motifs with a pale green glaze and a key-fret or geometric border band.
The markings on the bottom confirm this is a 20th-century Korean studio celadon piece made by a specific master potter.
The handwritten black underglaze characters read 광선 (Gwang-seon / Kwang-sun), written vertically from right to left (광 on the right, 선 on the left). • 광 (Gwang / Kwang): Meaning "Light" or "Radiance" • 선 (Seon / Sun): Meaning "Goodness" or "Zen" This is the name or art name (ho) of the Korean ceramic artist or kiln studio that crafted the piece.
The faint red square stamped mark next to the signature is the artist's official 낙관 (Nak-gwan) or 인장 (In-jang). This serves as the studio's official stamp or seal, acting alongside the signature to authenticate the work as coming directly from the master's workshop.
No chips or cracks.
