Charming Antique Onggi Pot for Preserving Seeds
Antique Onggi Pot for Preserving Seeds. Note the gorgeous swirled patterns throughout the interior wall that were created with a paddle. The clay is rich in iron and the glaze is made from clay mixed with wood ash and a little raw lead. The result is a rich chestnut brown on dark chocolate. The sweeping, gestural decoration of stylized orchids is made with the thumbs through the wet glaze. Really a charming antique piece of Korean culture. 10.5 inches (27cm) height x 47 inches (120cm) circumference.
