| Place of origin |
Stoneware ceramics known as punch'ong were made in Korea between 1400 and 1600. The design on this piece has been inlaid into the surface of the dish. After forming the dish from clay, the potter would have used stamps and carving tools to cut away and impress the pattern. The potter would then apply a creamy coloured liquid clay or slip to the dish. With the excess slip wiped away, the pattern is clearly revealed.
