Lidded vessel

Dateca. 2000
Maker Kim Yik-yung Korean, born 1935
Label TextIn addition to retaining the proportions, knob detail and high foot of a traditional ritual container, this contemporary work expresses the beauty of facetted surfaces reflecting light and shade, as seen on the body. A rectangular knob attached on the top of the lid is slightly askew, which gives this work an impression of airiness.
