A Joseon-period bowl of the type known in Japan as Katade<\/em>, made from a semi-porcelainous body. The base is relatively thick, giving the bowl slightly more weight than its appearance might suggest.<\/p>\n

Katade<\/em> is a Japanese term used for a group of Korean bowls with dense, high-fired bodies that fall between stoneware and porcelain. Originally made as utilitarian vessels in Korea, examples of this type were later appreciated in Japan as tea bowls for their restrained forms and quiet variations in glaze and surface.<\/p>\n

Condition & Kintsugi Repair<\/strong><\/p>\n

The bowl had been broken into six pieces: two large sections and four smaller fragments. A crack was also present in the largest fragment.<\/p>\n

In conventional kintsugi, after the fragments are joined with urushi, losses and recessed seams are typically filled and leveled with urushi-based material, often incorporating tonoko<\/em> clay, before gold or silver powder is applied to the surface.<\/p>\n

In this repair, a different approach was used. Gold leaf was first applied within the recessed seams and areas of loss, and layers of translucent urushi were then built up over it. As a result, the gold remains partially visible beneath the lacquer, appearing intermittently through the darker surface rather than sitting directly on top.<\/p>\n

The crack in the largest fragment was stabilized by allowing urushi to penetrate into it. It was then additionally reinforced with metal staples (kasugai<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Otherwise, the bowl is in good condition.<\/p>\n
