IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 15990 accession number: C.87 & A-1984 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Tuesday 11 February 2020 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: Funerary jar with looped handles. Stoneware, thrown, with loops attached and celadon-glazed. The shoulder is sharply incurved, the body is rounded and tapers towards the base and the foot slightly splayed. Four small loops are attached on the shoulders. The pale greenish glaze is thinly and unevenly applied, so that the clay of the body is occasionally revealed. On the footring are traces of greyish-white fire-clay spur-marks and on the shoulder deposits of ash. The piece is accompanied by a replacement lid, of pierced silver, made in Japan in the late 19th or early 20th century, presumably to allow use as an incense burner. title: funerary jar NOTES ----- type: history note value: unknown before donor LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Applied Arts collection: Gompertz Collection creditline: Gompertz gift STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/15990 TECHNIQUES ---------- stoneware, thrown, with loops attached and celadon-glazed throwing TECHNIQUES ---------- glazing (coating) CATEGORIES ------ category: stoneware category: celadon DATING ------ creation date: 1000 - 1050 creation date earliest: 1000 creation date latest: 1050 culture: 11th Century culture: Koryo Dynasty CREATORS -------- maker: Unknown DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: cm value: 7.2 CITATIONS -------- Hsu Ching's Visit to Korea in 1123 Korean Art from the Gompertz and Other Collections in the Fitzwilliam Museum, A Complete Catalogue Korai --- IMAGES surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_281_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_281_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_281_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_281_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_282_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_282_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_282_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_282_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_283_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_283_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_283_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_283_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_284_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_284_29.jpg height: 362 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_87_20_26_20A_1984_284_29.jpg height: 550 pixels width: 760 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_87_20_26_20A_1984_284_29.jpg height: 181 pixels width: 250 pixels
