Summary

Description
English: Vase with Cranes and Clouds

The cranes and clouds were etched into the clay body of this vase and filled with white and black slip before the piece was glazed and fired. This technique was common in Korea in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, but was extremely rare in China. The shape, on the other hand, known as a maebyong in Korean, was derived from the Chinese meiping, a form that originally functioned as a bottle but was later used to display plum blossoms.
