Foot rim and shallow base plate are fully glazed; three small, neat spur marks are withing the foot rim, presumably from quartz or silica stones. Such spur marks are characteristic of Chinese Ju ware, which is thought to have influenced Korean potters during the early part of the 12th century. The interior of the bowl is decorated with an impressed, or moulded, design of three boys playing among lotus flowers and foliage. Interior base has a nine-petalled pin-wheel-like flower, moulded. Exterior is plain. The bowl has a few minor cracks. The motif of small boys sporting among leaves and foliage is a T'ang motif which itself was probably borrowed from a Hellenistic cupid design. It was common in Korean incised and moulded patterns. The relief decoration of this bowl results in an impression of light and shade that enhances and enlivens the design. This is due to the tendency of the glaze to run off the raised areas and settle more thickly in the depressed areas. The design then stands out more clearly and has a lighter, whitish tone because the glaze there is thinner. (See Gompertz, p. 55) [Very good condition. Two vertical cracks running from the lip down the side--one runs all the way to the base, the other about 2\".
