Introduction to The Old Pottery Kiln Relics

  • The old pottery klin relics in Taegu-Myon mark the main place where celadon porcelains were backed in the Koryo Dynasy. The place was designated as a Historic site No. 68 in 1963.

    At Yongun-Ri, hundreds of kiln sites were found scattered sporadically throughout the area. Among them, Sadang-Ri is the place where the finest Koryo celadons were baked. A new klin was established in 1977 to reproduce the beautiful Koryo celadons which had not been made for about six hundred years. Dince then, to reproduce them, many people have devoted their lives to reproducing the craftmanship initiated by old ceramic artisans.


Reapperance of kangjin Koryo Celadon and Its Feature

  • Celadon is a type of China which has a mysterious blue color, It's also a kind of industrial art objects demanding high level of skill and precision work. Potters begins by creating a shape out of clay and then imprint on the shape, by means of etching, an inscribed pattern. Then celadon is fired for the first time at the temperature of 800°C. The second firing at 1300°C takes place after the natural glazes are applied.


    It takes 70days and 24 stages before the completion of a celadon piece. However there are more damaged pieces than end-products because the working process is time-consuming and can be stressful. So complete pieces have a high value in the world of art due to the harmony of the etched design, the mysterious color, and the elegant shape of the piece.


    The works of Kangjin-yo have a high degree of solidity and practicality. Therefore, the number of people preferring them is increasing.
