A large and heavy Korean ceramic vase in a Classic Chinese form with open mouth with a wide flared rim, a neck with three concentric grooves and a sloped broad shoulder. The blue and white design features two underglazed phoenixes in tandem continuum and scattered auspicious clouds. The white glaze has allover crackled pattern with some areas show a slight unevenness. The blue underglaze shows color pooling in certain area and also a few kiln explosion bubbling show in the detail photos. The base is partially glazed with much clay exposed. The base rim is rough indicating a certain age. The precise age of the vase is not clear but we estimate it to be late 19th century (toward the end of Joseon Dynasty), possibly early 20th century.
For an earlier jar from first half of 19th century with a similar phoenix design, see object C.75-1930 in the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum.
