Buncheong Pottery Design
Instead of using artificial glaze colors, this Buncheong pottery preserves the pure, natural white clay tone. Its understated hue blends effortlessly with any dish you serve.
Notice the tiny black specks across the soft white surface—like silver grains shimmering in a gentle stream. These appear naturally during the firing process, as the iron content in the clay reacts to the heat.
It is this unique characteristic of Buncheong pottery that gives it a truly Korean, natural beauty.

This rice & bowl pairs beautifully with banchan plates
