The abundant use of bright red copper underglazing on this unique celadon green decanter coexists perfectly with the color of blue sky after a rainstorm during an autumn afternoon. The body is shaped like a gourd with two lotus flowers of different sizes on top of each other. The flower on the lower body is slightly opened in the shape of a pond from which flower stems grow. A boy sits on the neck holding a lotus bud in his hand dipping his feet into the pond while a small frog is poised to jump from the handle, exemplifying vivid evidence of the Goryeo (918-1392) people's deep love of nature and rich imagination. The veins of each petal are delicately incised with copper-red outlines and occasional white dots serving to further enliven the overall effect of subtle luxuriousness. This particular work is a reproduction of the 13th century masterpiece listed as National Treasure No. 133. Read More
