Korean celadon

Korean celadon is a type of traditional pottery renowned for its delicate green glaze, developed during the Goryeo Dynasty (918–1392). Its distinctive color results from a unique glaze composed of iron oxide and clay, fired in a kiln that creates an optimal environment. This craftsmanship produces elegant, translucent ware often decorated with intricate carved or inlaid designs. Celadon was highly valued historically and symbolizes Korea’s artistic achievements. Today, it is celebrated worldwide for its beauty, craftsmanship, and historical significance, representing a sophisticated tradition of ceramic artistry that combines functionality with refined aesthetics.
