PROVENANCE

---

fun fact: 
The floral pattern of this bowl was created by a mold with carved patterns.<a href="https://www.clevelandart.org/art/1918.483#"><br></a>

digital description: 
As early as the seventh century, the practice of drinking tea and wine became an important part of elite leisure culture in Korea. A wide bowl like this example was especially suitable for drinking powdered tea shaved from a compressed tea cake, the most commonly enjoyed type during the Goryeo period.
