[BUNJANG] Woongcheon Guiyal Buncheong Teabowl (I-do Type) / 웅천귀얄분청 활고대다완.이도다완
Also known as an I-do teabowl, it features elegant curves and a natural aesthetic.
The clay used appears to be indigenous to the Woongcheon region.
There is a faint craftsman's mark within the 'Hwalgidae' (the technique of creating the foot rim) where it is cut.
This is a well-crafted teabowl with excellent glaze and clay color, capturing the characteristics of an authentic piece. It would be even more enjoyable when used as a functional teabowl.
**Historical Context: The 'Jeongmyeonggado' (征明假道 - Request to Borrow Passage to Conquer Ming)**
This refers to the request made by Toyotomi Hideyoshi of Japan to the Joseon government during the reign of King Seonjo, asking for passage to conquer Ming China. This correspondence is considered a precursor to the Imjin War.
Joseon ceramics were highly coveted by the Japanese Shogunate (Daimyo and Samurai) during the Edo period. The invasion of Joseon is sometimes viewed not just as a military campaign, but as a 'war of ceramics' driven by the desire to acquire Joseon's pottery. It is estimated that tens of thousands of people, including potters, were taken as spoils of war.
In contrast to the present era of plastic, interest in ceramics may seem lower now, but during the Imjin War period, Joseon's ceramic production and its skilled potters were a valuable asset for the Japanese Shogunate and feudal lords, offering significant economic benefits and representing a leap forward for Japanese pottery, which was still developing.
After the war, during the reign of King Gwanghae, very few potters were repatriated to Joseon through prisoner negotiations. Despite their skill, Joseon potters were often treated as lower class and exploited by the yangban (ruling class), leading to impoverished lives. It is understood that some who returned to Japan were given official positions and established renowned pottery lineages.
**I-do Teabowl - Joseon's 'Makgeolli' Bowl**
There is a famous anecdote from around the 1990s where a small building in Tokyo was exchanged for a Joseon I-do teabowl. At the time, its value was estimated at 5 billion KRW, an astronomical sum that shocked the world.
Given that many Joseon teabowls are designated as national treasures or important cultural assets in Japan, the Japanese people's affection and passion for tea bowls are profound. These were the 'dream teabowls' for those who wished to possess a superior tea vessel.
This Guiyal Buncheong teabowl is a beautiful piece for display or appreciation. When used, its thin body, fired at high temperatures, produces a resonant 'metal sound'.

진해웅천 귀얄 분청 다완입니다
이도 다완으로도 불리며, 유려한 곡선과 자연스러운
색감이 돋보이는 다완 입니다
웅천지역의 태토를 그대로 사용한 것으로 보입니다
활고대 굽 트임이 있는 부분에 희미한 수결이 있습니다
잘 만들어진 다완으로 유약도 좋고 태토의 색감도
진품의 특징을 이끌어 내었기에 실제 찻사발로 쓰시면
더욱 좋겠습니다
정명가도征明假道...
조선 선조 때에,일본의 도요토미 히데요시가 조선 정부에
대하여 중국 명나라를 치는 데 필요한 길을 빌려 달라고
요구한말.
임진왜란 발단이 되었던 서신의 내용입니다
조선의 도자기는 일본 막부시대(다이묘.사무라이)에
선망의 대상 이었습니다
명나라 와의 전쟁은 구실에 불가 하며,조선의 도자기를
침탈 하고져 일으킨 도자기전쟁 이었다
말하기도 합니다, 그 만큼 많은 피해와 조선의 도공과
포로의 인질로 학계 에서는 당시 20만명에 달하는
백성들을 데리고 갔다 전해집니다
당시 조선의 인구로 비교 하면 정말 많은분들 이셨죠
지금은 프라스틱 문명에 살고 계시기에 도자기에 큰
관심들이 저조 하시나 당시 조전전기 무렵만 해도
조선의 도공과 도요생산은 뒤떨어진 일본도예 수준의
입장에서 막부와 영주들 에겐 큰 돈벌이도 되는
일거양득의 호재라 하겠습니다
전란후 광해군때 포로협상 에서 조선 으로 돌아온
실제 도공들은 극소수 였다 전해집니다
아시겠지만 벼슬도 주고 가문도 세워,훗날 일본도예
가문의 선구적 명성을 알린 것으로 전해집니다
당시 조선도공의 현실은 천민으로 양반들의 착취의
대상 일뿐 궁핍한 삶,이었기에 공감이 됩니다
이도다완...조선의 막사발
기억이 가물가물 합니다
90년대 전후 즈음,도쿄의 작은빌딩과 조선 이도다완
과 바꾼 일화가 유명합니다
그당시 50억원의 가치 였으니,현재의 돈 가치로 어마
한 가격 이었기에 세상을 놀라게 하였구요
일본의 국보 보물급 으로 지정된 다완 들이 상당히
있기에 일본인 들의 찻사발에 대한 애정과 관심은
뜨겁다 하겠습니다
좋은 찻사발을 가지고 싶은 그들의 꿈의 다완 이었
습니다
전시해 두셔도 좋고,눈 으로 보시기도 경치가 아름
다운 귀얄분청다완 입니다
실사용 하셔도 기벽은 얇고 고온에 소성되어 쇳소리가
납니다
