A wheel-thrown bunchung tea cup finished in a warm umber glaze, distinguished by expressive white brushwork created using the traditional Korean gwiyal technique.
Formed on the potter’s wheel and finished individually by hand, each cup carries subtle variations in shape, tone, and surface. The sweeping gwiyal marks move freely across the vessel, leaving visible traces of the brush and the maker’s gesture. No two cups are exactly alike.
The earthy warmth of the glaze and spontaneous white markings embody the distinctive character of bunchung—an aesthetic in which irregularity and the hand of the maker are not concealed, but celebrated.
Its intimate size makes it a versatile vessel for tea as well as Korean spirits such as soju or cheongju, allowing it to move naturally between tea and the table.
Made to be used and held often, while carrying a quiet presence as an object in its own right.
Dimensions: Ø 3.0” × 1.9” H
