My work focuses on reinterpreting traditional ceramic forms through a contemporary lens. This piece is a modern reimagining of ancient Korean goose-shaped earthenware (Gireogi-togi).
In Korea, a pair of mandarin ducks, known as Won-ang, has long been a cherished symbol of marital harmony and enduring love, making them a traditional gift for couples. By infusing the form of ancient earthenware with the symbolism of mandarin ducks, I have sought to capture both the aesthetic essence and the deep cultural meaning of Korea in a single work.
Care & Handling
Both the interior and exterior are glazed, making the vase waterproof and safe for holding fresh flowers.
To preserve the delicate texture of the fabric impressions, we recommend hand washing with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or placing the item in a dishwasher, as this may damage the surface finish.
As each piece is handcrafted, please handle with care to avoid impact.
Small variations in shape and texture are a natural part of the handcrafted process, making each piece truly unique.
