In this Rounded version of the Wearing a Hat form, the body swells outward into a fuller, more spherical shape before narrowing to the foot — a contrast to the more continuous, egg-like profile of the Gentle Rise version. The raised, disc-like crown that names the series sits clearly separated at the top, its edge visible where it meets the rounded shoulder below.
As with the rest of the series, Jaejun Lee wheel-throws the piece in Korean porcelain before applying a celadon glaze to the crown and upper body, leaving it to run during the gas-fired reduction at Cone 9. The glaze drains in vertical trails down the shoulder, stopping before the base and leaving the porcelain bare — each trail fixed at the instant the kiln reaches its final temperature.
