Flower and Bird Vase

Flower and Bird Vase

Flower and bird vases are porcelain from the late Joseon Dynasty and were made around the late 19th to early 20th century. This porcelain vase is decorated with underglaze blue, with an outer diameter of 34.3 centimeters and an overall height of 49.4 centimeters. Its design is themed around birds and flowers, reflecting the delicacy and beauty of the porcelain art of the Joseon Dynasty. The porcelain vase was donated by the Mountain Chamber of Commerce to the Cleveland Museum of Art in memory of Jiro Yamanaka, with donation number 1989.117. This work not only showcases the traditional culture of the Korean Peninsula, but also reflects the craftsmanship of porcelain making at that time, and is one of the important collections of the Cleveland Museum of Art.
