Notes:

Sun-Su ware, by Kim Sun-Hee. "This is a celadon vase varnished with lacquer. When the celadon vase was completed, the surface was lacquered more than 10 times to make the color very dark. The yellow and white parts of the flower pattern were painted with powdered lacquer. Lacquering is usually used for making wooden furniture, but the technique compliments the shape of the bottle".
