{"product_id":"antique-korean-ceramics-113","title":"CHOKO, White porcelain, Joseon Dynasty（1392–1897CE）","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhite porcelain choko from the Joseon Dynasty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA small white porcelain cup with a slightly flared mouth, its compact dimensions convenient enough to fit in the palm of the hand. The body rises directly from the lower section and widens slightly toward the rim. Rather than a perfectly formal cup, the rim bears a gentle undulation, and the feel in the hand exhibits the soft quality characteristic of Joseon white porcelain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze is a white porcelain with a grayish-white cast, showing fine iron specks and faint clouding in places. Although the vessel is uniformly white, its tones quietly shift—bluish, ashen, and milky—depending on the light, giving it the calm, subdued character unique to aged white porcelain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is an air of age in the exposed clay around the foot and in the shaping of the lower body, reminiscent of mid‑Joseon white porcelain faceted bottles. It is believed to be a white porcelain piece dating from the mid‑ to late‑Joseon period. Although a small choko (sake cup), its clay, glaze, and forming are all robust, offering points of interest distinct from mass‑produced white porcelain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can, of course, be used as a sake vessel; it also suits sencha or small teacups, and may be enjoyed as a small serving dish or bowl. Set on Joseon woodenware or an antique tray, the serene quality of Joseon white porcelain is beautifully emphasized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOwing to its age, the surface shows fine abrasions, encrustation, and glaze crazing. There are no major chips or cracks. Please note these characteristics are consistent with an antique.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROCANIIRU COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52508725477657,"sku":null,"price":18006.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/9911\/1193\/files\/2026061114803.jpg?v=1781172072","url":"https:\/\/rcnir.com\/en-tr\/products\/antique-korean-ceramics-113","provider":"入蘆花（ロカニイル）","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
