Marvel at Goryeo celadon and stoneware—pieces that embody Korean royal heritage and monastic artistry. Each glaze and form tells a story of Korea’s past.
This stone object was made of amphibole from the Jangsu region in Korea. Such an object has been used since the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1897), when objects made of amphibole from Jangsu were used on the king’s table. Infrared rays and minerals coming from the stone during the transfer of heat protect food nutrients and improve the taste of what we eat. Furthermore, the warmth of amphibole helps a person’s blood circulation. Amphibole is a healthy material that keeps the condition of both hot and cold foods as they are for a longer period of time.
