Goryeo Celadon Covered Box with Inlaid Cinnabar Chrysanthemum Design

Celadon porcelain fmade in the late Goryeo period.
Covered boxes were used as containers for cosmetics, wax, incense, etc.
It is divided into upper and lower parts, and the inside is a shallow cavity.
Covered boxes are often used by women, so there are many items that are particularly particular about the inlay decoration.
This item is especially luxurious.
The chrysanthemum on top is painted down to the leaves, and the petals are colored red with precious copper.
Around it, a five-pointed star-like pattern is drawn in the form of an arch in a circular shape, which is further surrounded by a red bead pattern made of copper.
The thunder pattern is also inlaid on the side, and the surface of the vessel is filled with patterns and is gorgeous.
The color of the inlay is also clear and deep, and there are similar patterns in museums.
It is a very good product and I can recommend it with confidence.
You can put kneaded incense in it, but it is also a stylish way to use it as a container for small items such as precious metals.

There is a small aged deterioration on the surface, but overall it is luster and in good condition.There is a small crack on the edge of the back of the lid, but it does not reach the surface and does not affect use.
