Bio
Korean ceramics have a centuries-old tradition, characterized by a refined sensitivity to the natural beauty of the material and subtle glazes. From the refined elegance of Goryeo celadon to the white porcelain of the Joseon dynasty, Korean ceramics have always balanced functionality with artistic expression. In the 20th century, many workshops continued this legacy, often with rustic forms and vivid glazes that merge historical heritage with modernity.
