| Korean Scholar's Ten-Sided White Porcelain Water Dropper with a stylized Willow design in underglaze cobalt blue. The willow is an old symbol of peace and contentment. 3.5d x 3.25w x 1.5h inches, 9w x 8.25d x 4h cm. Korean antique water droppers were prized by Korean scholars of yesterday, and are treasured by collectors of today. A scholar's water dropper was a symbol of his refinement and good taste. In keeping with the Korean Confucian gentleman's aesthetic, artifice and colorful designs that catered to base instincts were to be avoided, while a natural and deep respect for nature was to be upheld. | ||
