Description from the seller
Item Description
A Goryeo-style celadon incense burner (香炉), featuring a lotus-form body, a delicately pierced (openwork) lid, and three rabbit-shaped feet supporting the base.
The lid takes the form of an openwork sphere, its surface carved in an intricate interlocking floral lattice, allowing incense smoke to escape while creating shifting patterns of light and shadow.
Below it, the body is modeled as a fully opened lotus flower, each overlapping petal rendered with crisp, raised veining.
The whole piece rests on a circular tray-like base, from beneath which three small rabbits emerge as supporting feet — a whimsical, distinctly East Asian decorative motif.
The glaze is a soft jade-green celadon (翡色), with the fine, all-over crackle (貫入) typical of this glaze family adding to its quiet, aged character.
On the underside is a maker's mark reading "徳明."
This piece is a later reproduction made in the revival tradition of Goryeo-dynasty celadon (a widely practiced craft in 20th-century Korea, reviving glaze and forming techniques associated with the historic Goryeo period, 918–1392) — it is not offered as an antique piece from the Goryeo dynasty itself, and we have not been able to independently verify further details on the maker or kiln beyond the mark itself.
Unused, and sold without its original box.
A charming and finely detailed decorative piece for collectors of East Asian ceramics and celadon ware.
