Classic form of a Kundika that was originally a drinking vessel for a monk and served Buddhist rituals. Curved silhouette with a standring. A vertically rising filler neck on the shoulder. Set up spout with a handle ring and a formed grommet with small opening. Bottom unglazed. One of the earlier examples because of missing decoration. Packed in a wooden box.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”75%” max_width=”75%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/m07arte.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/korea_006-kundika-in-bronze-look-left-side.jpg” title_text=”KOREA_006 – Kundika in Bronze Look – Left Side” disabled_on=”on|off|off” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”263769,263775,263776,263777,263774″ posts_number=”12″ show_title_and_caption=”off” show_pagination=”off” zoom_icon_color=”#971C21″ hover_icon=”.||divi||400″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” border_radii=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Object ID Age Material Color Height Height (neck) Height (standfoot) Diameter (bottom) Foller neck Condition [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-8.5%||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”-2.5%||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”-5%||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_module=”264708″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Price <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.23.1″ width=”75%” max_width=”75%” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” inline_fonts=”Prata” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The Kundika is the drinking bottle for an Indian Buddhist monk. Above that it served Buddhist rituals like the purification ceremony. The curved body-shape has a standring. The upper end is followed by a long narrow spout. There is a formed grommet with a handle ring and a small opening on the top. \u00a0The body of the bottle has an iridescent bronze\/green\/brownish glaze and tiny air bubbles, the bottom is unglazed. It is apparently one of the earlier examples because of missing decoration. A vertically rising filler neck, set up to the shoulder is a construction for adding fresh water (a funnel), while the mouth on the upper neck really serves for drinking and sprinkling clean water. The monk drank the water by a special method: Usually there was a mouthpiece, and the monk was able to drink the \u201cpure water\u201d\u00a0 holding the vessel a little bit distant from the lips. [1]<\/a><\/span> Such kind of water bottles (kundik\u0101) is entitled to belong to the eighteen \u201ctreasures\u201d of a Buddhist \u201cbegging monk\u201d. [2]<\/a> <\/span><\/span> Later it was imitated in China according to examples from India. The Chinese potters developed a form that could be copied in stoneware, copper and bronze. This type was repeated in Seladon during the K\u014dry\u014d-period in Korea (918-1392 AD). The use of the Kundika probably also changed: It was frequently repurposed to a wine bottle.
