손대현 팔각모란문 기|孫大鉉 八角牡丹文 器 |Octagonal vessel with cover decorated with peonies
Sohn Daehyun
2018 · Ottchil lacquer, red pine, hemp, red clay, and mother-of-pearl · Asian Art
The covered vessel is a tour de force of intricate inlay. This vessel foregrounds mother-of-pearl, but uses smaller, curvilinear pieces that showcase the meticulous work of cutting and inlaying the shell and painstakingly removing excess lacquer and polishing.
