We believe that within the past, one can discover a better present—and an astonishing future. We also believe that form itself can hold the power to give rise to meaning. Such forms from the past can be found in hanbok, the traditional Korean attire known as the “clothing of the wind,” and in one of its most symbolic elements—the gat, the hat of light. The moment one wears a gat, posture and behavior inevitably change. One cannot move carelessly; one cannot help but carry oneself like a king or a noble. This posture shapes behavior, behavior influences language, language shapes the mind—and the mind, in turn, transforms one’s very being.
Oh my God, Oh my Gat!

This gat ornament cord is crafted using green jade stone and jujube wood struck by lightning. The large jade stone at the center serves as a counterweight, while the jade stone on the right is intentionally placed to express the beauty of asymmetry. Together, these elements enhance the elegance of the gat.

The gat is a traditional Korean hat often referred to as a “hat of light.” It was worn by seonbi, the scholarly gentlemen of Korea. There are single-layer, double-layer, and triple-layer gat, and this product is a triple-layer gat. The aesthetic character of a gat varies depending on the proportions of its upper cylinder (the crown) and its lower brim. When the lower diameter of the crown measures 16 cm and the brim reaches 45 cm in diameter, the gat achieves its most dignified presence and a visually complete form.
