Originally, this tpye of bowl was first produced in celadon in the late Goryeo period and was made in large numbers in buncheong ware during the early Joseon period. The foot is shallow and roughly trimmed.<br /> <br /> Many of densely decorated buncheong wares, with the stamped technique, were produced for uses in government offices in the 15th century. The interior wall and base of the dish are decorated with stamped designs of scrolls and chrysanthemum bands, and a chrysanthemum, respectively, while on the exterior wall is inlaid with lutus petals. Four spur marks are left on the inner base, and sand is adhered to the entire rim of the foot, which evidences that this piece was placed on the floor during firing. The glaze was fused well and made a glossy surface.<br /> [Korean Collection, University of Michigan Museum of Art (2014) p.148]
